Heck, what do you do in your spare time Tony? :huh:

Keeps me off the streets

Tony,
My vote is for whichever one jumps off the shelf to be next in line. :duh
Looks like you have a ready stash waiting in line.
Keep em coming.
Shawn

 

[TREEMENDUS]

They should keep you busy for a few years.

 

[Tony lee]

I hate to say it but it's true. I lead a very dull life and don't get out much. :laugh:

In between daydreams I managed to get a little bit more done to the K-59 kit.

Thirteen more parts to install and the assembly will be complete. :woohoo:

What will tomorrow hold?

[shawngehling]

My wife always says that she would rather have me home sniffing
glue, then out drinking in the bars.. Works for me.

Shawn

 

[Tony lee]

Shawn my wife never said that to me instead she told me to be sure and take my pillow and a change of underwear because she was going to burn everything else if I did. hmy:

That's what works for me.

[shawngehling]

[jose luis lopez]

That K-,59 kit is just killing ....

.... and you "armor collection" is not big enough for you if you continue assembling as fast as you do!!! (I can also send you my unassembled kits and you can send them back to me just to paint them!!!!! ....

 

[Tony lee]

Now Jose I know you don't me to have ALL the fun. :woohoo:

I figured it's about time to get my feet wet with a bit of scratch building and the Marder II D is a good place to start. From what i've read and the one small picture that's in Nuts and Bolts #24,I cut out a large section of the kit gun deck to expose the driver/RO compartment.

Now i'm filling in the gaps with sheet stock and added ammo storage between the sponsons and gun deck on each side.

There's still a lot more to do in there but it's a beginning.
Thanks for coming by

[Dragunov]

Great job Tony, I'm always amazed by the speed you build your models, and how it doesn't effect the high quality of your builds!!

[mike walsh]

Excellent effort .

Michael

 

[Tony lee]

Yep "SPEEDO" is my middle name alright. :laugh:

It only took me just about all day to make one of two ready round lockers today.
Cutting out all those parts from a single sheet is for the birds. Strip stock has been put on the to get list for sure.

These will be mounted on the right and left casement walls.

Thanks for stoppin by

Hi Tony, Really nice scratch work going on here :dude

That resin stuff looks great, how is it to assemble? What glue do you use?

Looking forward to more good stuff from you

Randy

 

[Tony lee]

Randy it went together smooth as silk. I tried Gator Grip at first but it wasn't working so well and I pulled it off and used 5-min epoxy,she's stuck now.

Thanks for your comments
Tony Lee
