The Duke Finishes 2 More in June

[Duke Maddog]

Thanks to a fortuitous set of circumstances, I was able to spend the time I needed to bring two more models over the finish line this month.

These two span the years from WWI to (relatively) modern times.

First up is my 1/72 scale Master Box WWI Mk. IV female "H.M.L.S Tiger" adapted for the Gaza Strip:

Next is my 1/72 scale ACE Israeli Nagmasho't Heavy APC:

That's all so far since I've been trying to concentrate on my An-124 lately. I hope you enjoy this short parade. I may have one more model brought over the finish line soon; possibly this month. If not, it'll definitely be done at the beginning of next month.

Thanks all for looking in, comments are welcome.

I am really impressed how your builds just get better and better, really nice weathering on your APC ( if desert dust is weathering )

 

[Duke Maddog]

Thank you guys for the terrific compliments, they are most appreciated. Paddy, I still think the desert dust is not up to my mental image of what looks best. One of my biggest weaknesses is weathering with powders; I'm still learning. It didn't help that I had to erase a huge thumb print on the skirts if that APC! Oh well, I'm still trying.

Thanks again guys!

Ahh the output of the factory is still alive, nice ones

Neat stuff as always! The IDF vehicle is proof that the Israelis never throw anything out until they absolutely have to!

Thumb print = the shock wave of a nearby exploding mine on a dusty surface .

Thank you Martin! I'm trying to maintain it.

Thank you Bruce! You are so right. I even have a couple Tiran models in the collection now too thanks to them!

Thank you Paddy! Mine did not quite look like that so I decided to take no chances and erase it.
