All Righty ... What's on the bench today?

[paddy]

Going round in circles myself , i seem to have got side tracked with adding bits for a display base for my Scammell and now i realise it doesnt need any of this and actually less is more. I get troubled with figures.....I like reality and scenery and a tank are often static but once i add figures ( which are never static in life ) it seems to lose something. I suppose its a bit like flames ? they are never static so hard to model. i think anything other thn a truck with its load will detract from the truck and its load in my case....Which all means i need a smaller base back to the drawing board

 

[moon puppy]

Don't over think it Paddy, just git'er done.

 

[paddy]

Got it sorted now Bob, i am going to cut the base down and just display the truck and a load. You have to try these things in order to find out they were a bad idea

 

[Duke Maddog]

I hate all of you!

All I have is my 11X7'10" man closet. And, weeeeeee doggie is it crowded.

Ha! You're lucky compared to me! I have a 10x10 hobby room and you don't know the meaning of the word 'crowded' until you've seen it! Not only do I have 350+ stash models in boxes everywhere, but I also have 1614 completed models of all types packed in there! Yeah, everytime I turn my model chair around, I start a small avalance...

 

[paddy]

I hate the lot of you including Duke My entire flat is smaller than your man caves.

 

[paddy]

Having said that, as there is just me i suppose my whole flat is a man cave....so my man cave has a kitchen

I like this thought process.

Best I'll do is a minifridge.

 

[Duke Maddog]

Yeah, I got one of those minifridges in my man cave. Room is so cluttered I can't get to it.

And a Loo!

Well, I was clearing up my workbench and hobby room the other day and decided to place all my works-in-progress on my spray booth to get them out of the way. This is what is currently on my workbench, not counting models I just started.

First is this shot of the A-400:

...and the rest are here:

Updates and a new tour coming soon....

Spent a day messing around with this Lindberg kit. some the part fit is really good and there is other places need some help. Fun for a day, maybe have three hours into it. I already put it up, used it get the MOJO back.

 

[errains]

Now that's not something you see every day.

 

[Iron Mike]

Nice!

 

[Jeeves]

Been fooling around with a base...not sure what direction I am going yet, but just trying things out...

Also working on the RFM StuG...not sure I am in love with the AMMO white wash paint...

And started the ICM G7117 truck...

 

[Iron Mike]

The whitewash will look better after your dark pin wash to bring back the details. What's your take on the Rye Field kit?

 

[Jeeves]

Thanks Mike...yes sir that is the plan! I really loved the kit- the fit was excellent. I loved the way the tracks went together...they are well done and workable with no issues. I kind of wished I'd gotten the interior version now, but c'est la vie!

 

[Iron Mike]

I'm sure there's still one available...

 

[Impisi]

oh well ... it is been a while since I've posted in here. Life and all the things around it - you know it - I can't shut down when things get complicated and so, I forget about this great comunity in here - I'm sorry folks, but honest, I do not promise it won't happen again.

The last 3 weeks to i managed to do some small steps here an there, so the vegetation for the Dimetrodon scene I started months ago is taking up shape:

Nice job Martin!
