Haven't been here in a while, a couple surgeries, work, and taking care of my elderly mother has kept us busy the past couple of years. I haven't really been building much over that time however I have been managing to carve out a bit of time on a seeming more consistent basis for a while now so...

Next on the bench is this little guy...… I like these types of auxiliary vehicles and am looking forward to getting into this one. I also got a set of aftermarket tracks for it as the kits rubber band tracks are pretty bad. Pit Road also at one time issued a P/E set for this kit, though it...

So after finishing the T-6 I was sorta not building much until I happened to find this little guy in the local comic book store. I was waiting to pick up lunch for my wife from the sub shop next door and went in to check the place out. There are not alot of parts in the kit, but the detail...

I started this one a while ago, and had needed to get it finished by the first week of June, which I did, just haven't had much time to post up anything recently. Work and family stuff have kept me occupied for the past several weeks. Anyway, here goes..... The kit is more like a limited run...

I will build the Revell-Monogram 1/64 scale Cylon Raider. Monogram first issued this kit in 1978 (Good Lord, was it that long ago??) This kit was issued in 1996, and one more issue cam in 2007 with updated parts. I always wanted to build one of these back in the day (my best friend had one), but...

Hopefully this qualifies :idonno BanDai 1/72 scale If this isnot okay for this, let me know and I will look for something else Ernie

Well, with time running out on this campaign, I have something that will hopefully be a quick build :pp I had originally ordered some stuff back at the beginning of December but it still has not shown up, so I grabbed this instead as the back up. Should be doable (famous last words) :rotf...

I am going to build the Kilo Class Submarine ORP Orzel using the Trumpeter kit. I had tried one of these years ago with less than stellar results (in fact it got turned into a waterline model, before getting junked). A friend gave me this one two or three years ago, and I really didn't want to...

I picked this up at Hobby Lobby Thanksgiving Weekend; it was the only toon model left ;) Unfortunately, I did not take a whole lot of in progress pictures as I have been poking at it over the past month when I have had a spare few minutes. I added the bolted strip between the hull and...

Looking for suggestions or information on the interior colors of the BergeHetzer. Any suggestions are appreciated. Ernie

I am looking for a specific set of markings from a Wingnut wings decal sheet that is sold out. I am trying to get a set of markings for Michael Sigmann's D.Va from sheet #30016, it is option D. If anyone has the sheet and would be willing to part with those markings I will happily pay or trade...

Wondering if anyone has used the HGW 1/32 Lozenge decals and what your opinion of them might be. I have never used them and am looking at getting a couple of sheets for two kits I have. Thank you. Ernie

I am looking for an old Microscale decal sheet, 48-182 that has an option for an F-106 from the 27th FIS that flew out of Bangor, Maine. I would very much like to build this aircraft as it is from the local area. Thank you, Ernie

I spent some time this past weekend working on this. I need more space on my workbench and the only way it seems I am going to get some is to finish the pile of started kits residing there, and also I want to try not to have a shelf of doom, cuz I could use that shelf space for new kits :bgrin...

I have decided to build Takrom's 1/35 scale Skoda Turtle armored car. I have never built a Takrom kit as of yet so I figured this was as good a time as any to try one out. This is a very nice kit! Well detailed and goes together quite well so far. The under body is well detailed for as...

Figured I would throw this one in, this is a sort of a practice kit as I have not built a ship in quite some time, so I can get in a little practice before I get too deep into the HMS Abercrombie, which will be much more involved I fear.

I just got this through one of Squadron's sales a week or so back, and just ordered a book on it today, so this is just kind of a place holder for now, haven't even cracked the shrink wrap on the box yet. The box though is quite large, much larger than I envisioned so I think this is going to be...

This will most likely be a slow build as I am building this with a very dear friend of mine. He is building the sister ship HMS Roberts. We try to get together a few times a month dependent upon my schedule, and will be working on these together when we do. So far, we have gotten the Master...

I am using the 1/48 Accurate Miniatures kit, probably out of the box on this one. The kit has a very nice decal sheet that has enough spare letters and numbers so I can put together the markings for one of the F3F-2's from the movie.

Ok, so I am a little late getting started, but this will be my entry, the AMT 1/72 C-130 with the addition of the KL Productions LC-130 conversion to turn this into a ski equipped version used by VX-6 to support operations in the Antarctic :thumbsup And, as usual my crappy start up photo...
