The Duke's Latest Count: 622 Finished Armor Models

Duke Maddog

Well-known member
That's right. Just before the last St. Crispin's Irregulars Hobby Day Friday I was able to finish seven more models to bring my armor count up to 622 finished armor models. And here they all are.

I'll start out by posting a model I'd finished some weeks ago but forgot to take pics and post. This is my Trumpeter 1/72 scale Russian Drasine "Kraznaya Zvezda":

Now for my most recent finished models. These first two are my smallest ones done so far. This is my MAC Distributors 1/72 scale Russian UAZ-469 scout vehicle done up as a Guards unit:

That's the first MAC kit I've ever built.

Next is my ACE 1/72 scale British Tourer staff car:

Now on to some of my larger models. This next one is only the fourth ever resin model I have built. It darn near took off my thumb too, but I finally decided it's been sitting for far too long. Therefore, I pulled it down and finally finished it.

Next is another model that had been sitting for too long. This was started for a Group Build on the AMPS Forums that ran until they took away our Braille Scale Forum. Once they did that, I set this model aside and almost forgot about it. While re-arranging my desk, I found it again and decided it was close enough to being done so I finished it off. Here's my Dragon 1/72 scale T-34/76 Beute:

Okay, enough of the old stuff. Here's one of my models I've been working on for a Group Build on the Missing Lynx Braille Scale Forums. This is my ACE 1/72 scale Iraqi AT-3 Sagger vehicle. It ain't the best looking model I have finished lately, but I'm declaring it done:

And now for my newest models finished. Newest as in least time working on them. Meet "Betty"; my Dragon 1/72 scale Canadian Churchill MkIII:

Next is "Castlerobin IV", my Dragon 1/72 scale British Churchill MkIV:

And that is is so far. These are my latest armor models done. Now to finally finish a few aircraft to go along with these.

Thanks all for looking in, comments are welcome.
 
Duke, you are a building factory. I like how all that armor has turned out. Looking forward to what 2013 has in store for us all.

Thanks Dave! 2012 ain't quite over yet; I do have a few more models I could possibly finish before that time.

Stay tuned, and thanks again. Your posts always brighten my day.
 
That's quite an achievement, Duke!

Back to your crave for JGSDF armors in 1:72 scale, now there is another option. Build them yourself with this machine!:

Thanks Model Maniac! Usually, I have about ten to fifteen more completed by this time, but as was mention, work, large aircraft and the Dora held me back.

Man, I'd love to get that and try to make some models from it, but the cost for something like that is prohibitive to me. Hey, a man can dream....
