Good afternoon to you all, hope you've all had a good Christmas! I thought I would share my latest builds that were finished yesterday. Earlier in the year I picked up this for a good price and felt the need to build them straight away: Both went together without any effort. They were both OOB builds and the only deviation I made was to leave the nose caps off the fuselage until after painting was finished in order that I could pop the exhausts in at the end rather than having to do a lot of masking. Mr Paint was used for the RLM 78 and 79 with all other colours being Tamiya. A Mig blue grey wash was used over the 78 and Tamiya brown panel line wash over the 79. Here is the first one; Bf 109F-4/Trop 4./JG27 El Gazala, Libya 1941 And if your eyes aren't bleeding, here's the other one: Bf 109G-2/Trop 1./JG 77 Bir-el-Abd, Egypt 1942 Look forward to your comments as always and here's wishing you all a wonderful New Year! Howard

This is my first armour post here, Tamiya's 1/35 Tiger 1 (Afrika). Lots of mods to portray an initial Tiger 1 of the 501st Battalion in Tunisia, AFV workable early Tiger tracks (plastic), photo etch screens, and painted in a "troppen 1" scheme of RAL 8000 and RAL 7008 using Tamiya acrylics, Hope you like. I wasn't sure how much could be seen through the screens, so I scratch built fuel tanks, rads, and fans - as it turns out not much is visible - Oh well ... Comments always welcome, thanks for looking, Colin

Just finished this today. It's been on or near my bench for I don't know how long and as a result it had to be finished to make some room. It's the ages old Tamiya kit built out of the box with only the addition of the Eduard etched set and some Value Gear stowage. The figures are I think Master Box. All painted with Vallejo or Lifecolor acrylics. Thanks for looking! Cheers
