  1. That's an excellent model. The figures are superb... some great face-painting tips you've provided there. I've tended to use thinned Tamiya 'smoke' for a similar approach, but it can look a bit brutal at times. Must try your approach, cheers.
  2. Great work so far. That looks like a really good kit from Academy, I didn't know they'd released a Panzer II. What are the things numbered '8' on the sprue for? (Just below the track sections an jerry cans... are they teeth which have to be added to the track sections?). Thanks.
  3. Wow, that's great... the sheen on the skull and muscle is gruesomely done.. excellent...
  4. Couple more pics on the Tamiya site... https://www.tamiya.com/japan/products/35375/index.html This is 'class' / 'stickin' out', as we say here in Belfast, ie 'spiffing'... Will definitely be getting one of these beasts....
  5. These are great. Did you use decals for the eagles and epaulettes or paint them?
  6. This is going to be a great build, will keep an eye on progress... well done!
  7. Brilliant stuff. I've just checked your WIP thread, all that additional work has definitely paid off.
  8. Wow! I like the edging effect on the steel plate.
  9. Top notch. The Crusader always looks good in that camo scheme.
  10. Lovely stuff. The camo scheme is very nicely done indeed, Good effect on the tilt as well.
  11. Lovely finish. The soft camo edge / blur is great.
  12. Cool! The Churchill is just such a weird looking tank, one of my favs. That's a great result you got there, the paintwork and fading is class. The track marks through the grass is a good touch.
  13. Brilliant. I love seeing these older Tamiya kits built up ans have been following this one with interest. That's an incredible result, superb piece of modelling. Go on, do the Paratroopers as well!!
  14. Lovely models there. The finish and presentation is excellent. Must take a look at Alanger, it's not a producer I know much about.
  15. Excellent work so far, the paint job is great. It's a lovely kit, the 1970's Tamiya T-34/Su-122/Su-85 series are great fun builds.
  16. Resin kits have always seemed a bit daunting, but I'd love to build the Matilda Mark I, so I'll be watching this one with interest...
  17. Like others have said, it looks very convincing in that guise. I admire your patience with all those stencils!
  18. Excellent work on these. The M51 variant makes the Sherman just look so brutal and powerful. Must get one!
  19. What a cool beast! That cockpit is amazing. Silly question, but are the masks transparent? I'm just wondering how you manage to align everything to make sure you've got the right placement etc.
  20. Very nice! like the detail touches such as the cabling for the smoke discargers. Were the stowage rail/rack thingies on the sides from the aftermarket etch set?
  21. That's a lovely little carrier. I like the scrim netting which you've added to the helmets, big improvement. The etch likewise makes a big difference. Though how the devil did you manage to get the driver to fit? Did you leave the front panel off until the end? I tried to add the driver after all was built, but even with his legs sawn off it was a bit awkward. The poor fella!
  22. That's brilliant. Great idea, great execution. Weirdly, reminds me of the Top Trumps playing cards I had way back in the day, the tank set seemed to feature a load of Aberdeen photos.
  23. That looks the business, lovely build. The effects on the mud chutes etc are excellent. Also, I must try that Vallejo colour, good recommendation.
