Hi Guys looking for the Clear Sprue from Tamiya Churchill kit 35210. The Clear Sprue has bottles and goggles on it . Any help in this matter would be truly appreciated. Thank You. Brian panzerstikeATcomcast.net. Replace AT with @

Hey Guys, First let me explain, in my opinion there are two sizes of 1/35 figures Large 1/32/54mm types and smaller I believe truer 1/35 figures. I think old Tamiya , Verlinden old Warriors and some old Dragon figs are very large and more 54mm in my opinion. Looks to me that newer Tamiya figs...

Thanks Guys always glad to get input and Ideas from other modelers as they say knowledge makes things easier. Have you seen what guys are charging for Magic tracks in the trade sections and on eBay? It’s ridiculous the kit cost like $45 and many come with the Magic tracks but guys are charging...

Hi Mike Wow that’s a lot of money on this kit . The tracks as John said cut the teeth off carefully saving the teeth and glue them in the track slots for them so you don’t have empty track slots from a frontal view and glue the track around the sprocket. Pz IIs have like Four diff Sprockets...

Not my first military kit but very early prob my first Tamiya Kit I grew up on the Monogram kits with the Shep Paine inserts I think I had everyone of them there were like twenty prob. My first Tamiya was the Pz III then the III then the 232. Brian

Hi Mike, You’ve done a lot to this antique and it all looks very good. I like the new cupola I think it was designed for the newer Tamiya Pz IIs as they both have the split hatch turrets and only the round type went to Africa. The barrels and welds are a great improvement.The biggest downer...

John just amazing how fast you can put it together. I like how you make so much going on down to the green fresh spout between the bricks . Fantastic , can’t wait to see the tank on it. Brian

Looks like a nice clean build of the AC , your gonna have fun Camoing this with John . Ah you added the infamous air filter behind the turret there I have have done much study on this little found filter , Tamiya was the one that got me interested in it on the 4 wheelers. What hardly anybody...

Hi James, Don’t remember if I told you that TMD has a nice ammo set , wicker baskets and canvas rapped.

Hey Guys, This Q isn’t really just about the 8 Wheelers but myself and a bunch of us have lately been Discussing the 8 wheeler Tires.So as I was going through real pics on them for our discussion something I started noticing about the tires. We were discussing which tires...

DML Sd. Kfz. 10/5 Ukraine 1943 Those look good I didn’t look at minimart. John the old Tamiya winter flakvierling crew has ba good officers cap that is all crumpled I wish I was homehome I have a bunch to give you. I’m surprised you don’t have them they are also in the Whirlbelwind and the 7/2...

DML Sd. Kfz. 10/5 Ukraine 1943 Hi John, Two Dragon sets come to mind, German infantry at bivouac and Panzergreniders at rest Italy, I think with some Frankenfigure work they will work for you . John this is amazing you always paint vehicles great but your foliage and stuff is Fantastic I...

OK James, Here’s the pic I was looking for the original from that top view. I have read that this is a real color clip from a roll from I believe Time magazine in 1942. I have heard a few times that this is an original color clip not colorized.Hope this helps. Brian

Hello James , Your tarp idea is fine , but these vehicles came at the time in mid / late 42 when they were factory painted in and out as African. So I would avoid the Grey paint. Here are a bunch of phototos and one in particular has a great top pic showing all yellow inside.. Hope they help.

DML Panzer 1 ausf. B ( DAK with Doc) I remember the first time I did that one piece removable exact same way. It was in the very early 80s it was the Tamiya Grief 250/3 kit , it had those link n length tracks first one I recall with those and I liked them. Looking very nice John can’t wait to...

I’m surprised we are not seeing more Kubelwagens here. It’s a easy build prob one weekend and covers every single paint scene in Africa . I have seen just dusty panzer grey, applied mud, Desert sand paint, Desert brown paint light yellow that looks possibly British even the later panzer yellow...

DML Panzer 1 ausf. B ( DAK with Doc) John you didn’t answer me ? What unit are you going with? Brian

DML Panzer 1 ausf. B ( DAK with Doc) Hey John are going to make it 5th light or 21st or 8th/15. I was just wondering and could not remember if you said so? Are you using kit decals? Or are you making your own? I remember you used to make your own many times for Archer Masters. It’s looking...
