  1. Good Morning my friends. After the Fencer I built this little beast : the 1/35 TOS-1 A from Trumpeter. Very fun to build it because of the "million pieces" for the tracks.. you know what I mean. The model was converted to the type built for the Algerian Army (extra armour protection on the front and the sides as well as the T-72 B3 and T-90's are equiped with, note the tos is mounted on a T-72 chassis). No after market needed as curiously the extra parts where provided in the kit ! GOOD INVESTMENT 😁.The number plates where made by myself on printed decals .. as usual. Cheers. now some pictures of the real beast : The model :
  2. Thanks ! why kongo ?. LOL got a job there to earn enough money to buy 250 + kits 🤣
  3. Hello my friends, Six months after returnig home from DR Congo and 3 weeks of COVID, I was able to restart my zorks on the workbench. Now, I present to you this build. The 1/48 Sukhoi SU-24 Fencer from Trumpeter with the Algerian Air Force markings. I must confess; this kit is a great disappointement. It needs a lot of work of corrections and putty. I uesd eduards exterior PE, it was necessary... Algerian roundels and serial numbers are home made decals. I used Tamiya acrylics with this composition : for the light blue : XF2 (Flat white 95%) + X4 (Blue 5%). For the khaki/brownish : XF49 (Khaki 80%) + XF10 (Flat brown 20%). And finally just for the green : XF61 (Dark Green). Here is a picture of a real Algerian Fencer before they painted them with Desert camo : The model : Cheers !
  4. hi ! Well... the only word I could say about your work is : A W S O M E !!!🖐️😉
  5. hello I ordered this kit today with interior PE from Eduard (but made for Hobby Boss Kit.. hoping it will fit). I will make a what if ... Algerian Air Force colours (in reality the Fullback will be acquired this year or later - 2021) but for now I don't know what camo would be put on that big bird. some say same as the Su-24s. cheers !
  6. Hello my dear friends. I present to you my latest build : the 1/35 SAM-6 from Trumpeter. An old kit manufactured in 2005.. and very problematic by the conception, the quality and the building plan. I had tho clean and reajust many parts for good fitting and the missiles... ooooh dear... . some rubber pipes had to be mounted in a certain shape but that was impossible to do. Sadly this kit was disappointing. I did the best I could. cheers
  7. awsome !! 🤩 the weathering is very nice !
  8. First class ?? realy !!! Thanks John. !!!
  9. Hello. T-55 A finished. will post some pictures of the painting/weathering steps in the appropriate topic. cheers !! 🖐️
  10. splendid ! I love those scratch conversion and improvement works ! 👍
  11. thanks my friend ! I had to drill only a dozen of links. i think it's a mistake or a miss in miniarts moulds ... the links are "ready".. in theroy . and what concerns the paint (used Tam acrylics) 1- i started with a base coat of a mix of yellow desert and yellow (I had mustard color LOL) 1.a.-then added a few white to the mix to obtain the right color I wanted. with that miw i made a light coat for the pannels etc... 2- the weathering began with a chipping . using dark green... used a tiny piece of sponge 2.a.- the rust was made by myself : a mix of black yellow red and metallic grey + gloss vanish. applied with a brush + coat of gloss vanish 2.b. - then added some brown pannel line (Tamiya). added a coat of gloss vanish again .. after that I used Mig pigments (medium rust) 2.c.- another coat of gloss + north africa dust (pigment and ended with a mix of 20% gloss / 80% mat vanish
