It seems that the 1/16 scale is starting to take off, so to will the after market stuff that I'm rather fond of. Well I will wait and see, father's day in Australia is in September and I can drop hints about it LOL....

It is close to $300 Australian, so it is a lot to ask. I certainly would like to build something like that, then I saw the price for a set of metal tracks LOL....even more scary LOL I will wait till she is in a good mood....(maybe a while)

Considering getting this, Trumpeter 1/16 Russian T-72B1 w/ Kontakt-1 Reactive Armor Main Battle Tank... Haven't built anything this big before and it is a lot of money that I will have to ask the wife for! ( god help me...)

Sounds like my back and knees.....

Yeah that was the problem, I had been pulling mt hair out over the grey/green for my hind and found it in the "real colours", just got the brush back from going bubble, bubble ( boiled hot water, certainly did the trick) and went and put the "gloop" in it ( the air went a vivid blue around me)...

Sadly it would appear that one just can't go and buy a replacement trigger. It was okay as long as you didn't expect much, was waiting till the minister of finance said I could get the replacements for the Sparmax, so will order that and a 1/48 scale KA 27 Helix...

AK basic line brush, a rather mediocre brush and prone to blocking. I will get the expensive brush going again, better results.

Turned the house upside down.....got me beat. It would appear that I can't go out and just buy a replacement either ..BIG SIGH. Guess I will have to get the Sparmax GP 35 going. Don't reckon the wife will let me have the funds to buy another brush.

Having one of those days lads.....? Been having airbrush problems, the old bubble....bubble. Took it apart and cleaned it, then stuck it into boiling water, worked fine, then went and put some AK paint in it and things turned to potty time again! So went and pulled it all apart and managed to...

So this is Little Big Horn? I did the re enactment there in 2006.

That would certainly make a great kit, wonder the 3D crowd hasn't done some thing. On that note would love a BIG "SeaQuest"

No wonder the ladies like it.....

My grandmother took me to see 2001 "A space odyssey" back in the 70's when I was knee high to a grasshopper, I didn't really understand the film ( and didn't even after I read the book....) BUT the spaceships were great and I dreamed of what we would be doing in 2001...... Well 2001 has come...

Yes, that's what they call them

Are you sure you can stand the mediocrity....

Something different, would like to do some more.....alas the cupboard is bare as I have just had to buy another car! Just noticed the cat hair in the Hind cockpit.....AHHHHHHH

Since building the T-55, I decided to have a Naval Infantry kick. I had decals for a BTR 80 in Naval pattern and went ahead with that, thought it would look neat alongside the T-55, also hiding in my stash is the Trumpeter 1/48 Hind P and I saw that in Naval colours as well, my other Hinds are...

This is the Zvezda T-80, the camo is unusual and I think was never used, except for an example of "what can be done".

Beware the instruction numbering is wrong, recheck the parts and don't get caught like I did.
