If anyone has had the displeasure of putting together Panda tracks, they will understand why I made the effort to print out a whole set of replacement running gear. Getting everything to mate up was treacherous, folks, but worth it.
#ItaliGB #histscalemodels that's the last session for a week. Off down to London for an important family do (well my sister and I). Details with pics on Friday.
Happy Monday to you fellow model makers. I just heard about upcoming release by ICM. Coud we finally gat a good to great 1/48th scale UH-1C kit? (Based in their past work - Yes!) #HistScaleModels

My friend chose next project for me.
So between my jet escapades, I am building good old Spitfire ๐ฅ
First impressions: it seemed that fit of wing roots and cockpit will be an issue but when i got to joining fuselage halves and wings. Yet no problem arisen
Added canisters to their place on the platform. In the finished model, they are protected by a cover and they are barely visible. #papercraft #Tatra815 #AV15 #scalemodel #histscalemodels
Throwing this out there to the #histscalemodels community-Iโll be at the Australian Armour and Artillery museum likely Wednesday this week and also probably Thursday.
If thereโs something there you know of and want some specific shots of let me know and Iโll see what I can grab for you.
Finally carved out time today to get some building done on the 88. The bogies done minus the parts which will have to be painted then added, drilled out the gun barrel and started the gun mount. Nice kit, little flash and a lot for detail for 1/72 scale. #histscalemodels #scalemodels
Starting a new kit here in the mountains. Itโs kind of become a thing where I start a build while camping and finish it at home.
This one is for the local IPMS โAnything by Revellโ group build.
It's always on the last pass when the paint job gets hit by a fleck of dust. ๐ซฃ๐

๐๐ชMore Churchill.
Right side wheels done(ish)
Building up the turret.
Old plastic, so a tow wire broke into three-bodge fix.
Too much grubbiness?
The water oil is great for wet streaks, fresh muddiness and mellowing rust powder!
Getting there, just need to find a steering wheel and make some windscreens. The I stumble on to the next project.

At times this has been the cheapest way to buy a TSR.2 in 1:72 scale. The Stratos4 (anime) parts are on a separate sprue.
This kit is in 1:72 scale, from Airfix.
