With the Hetzer out the way, I'm picking up on this shelf queen.

Need to get the hang of the site again. Thanks for reminding me Iron Mike. Will post all updates here.

Been on this for about 5 months now, needs to be done by November for our local model competition.

Started the Academy Hetzer (Late) a few weeks back, I'll just post some progress pics. Added some weld seams, camo net hooks and other bits so far.

Hi Guys, Been a long time since I was last here. There have been huge changes in my life over the last bunch of years. Thanks to Saul for reminding me about this group. Truth is I haven't been building much until very recently again. My new vocation as an author has taken me away from this hobby...

Starter Picture from last night.

Finished this in December. Built out the box but fully re-scribed.

This is the very old Tamiya kit of the T-62A Did a lot of fixing up as follows but before I get into the build, this is what I was aiming for A) Added DefModel gunboot and corrected front section of turret using JP Model resin turret as a master B) Added 2mm to the height of the...

Considering the time frame and after looking at Iron Mikes build of this kit, I have decided to jump in. I will only start building after one or two other projects but I will give myself enough time. Will post my official entry shot this evening.

This was the second oldest WIP in my stash (the Kugelblitz being the oldest) Finished it at last, last month. The hold up occured when I sprayed the turret and couldn't understand why 4 days later it was still tacky with everything sticking to it, then I realised I had inadvertently used...

Finished this one a week ago. Good kit considering it's age and pedigree. Some enhancements were necessary to make it look good such as under wing stores were all upgraded with lots of work, as was the cockpit which benefited from an Eduard colour PE set, etc, etc. Also used the stunning...

Just started with this one and it will be a couple of firsts for me - my very first ever 1/32 and the first time I am painting and including a figure in any kit.

Seven years ago i looked at my stash and noted that I had.....a lot of Jugs, there was M's, N's, D's and razorbacks and bubble top's aplenty. I especially noted a horde of Academy N's and I had a thought about it and it occurred to me that if I built them one at a time as usual, I would probably...

Going to do this and have already ordered a few AM goodgybobs from Hannants.

Well the Phantom is on a holding pattern awaiting decals from a very kind soul in the UK (nudge, nudge, wink, wink Ian) so I decided to unpack something that I have been meaning to get to for a very, very long time. First impressions are not too good. The surface detail is very soft and...

Just finished Peter Bremmer's unique fighter...

Dug this out that I had started 8 years back. The cockpit looked super shit so I ripped everything out and squeezed in an Eduard colour set - but it was for the Hasegawa kit so couldn't use it all and it took some work to get it in. Also stuck in a pair of those ubber gorgeous Quickboost...

Just finished right now, bit of a difficult build that has been WIP for over 8 years.....

I would like to show a very simple technique I use for paint fading/weathering. There are a lot of different ways of doing this and as with all techniques, it is the modeler who must decide what works for him. The "PRE-SHADE"technique is currently favoured by most modellers however for me this...
