H and little H build a Lanc. 

Meng models kids Lancaster. Just short of 2 1/2 hrs. Little H did most of it herself, funnily enough it was the stickers that she gave up on after they kept sticking to the card. 

Painted with Humbrol 31 for the green camo.

Hi BlitzPeople! Harrier GR.3 on Atlantic Conveyor May 1982. Actually on a pillar in the yard but squint a bit and imagine sea, steel and the odd seagull.

Meng 'Toon' Sherman M4A1

 

This is was a great kit to build - loads of fun. Fit was mostly pretty good. Actual build time was probably about 18 or so hours. I was thinking of doing more weathering and adding some mud but time got away from me in the end. Thank you to Enzo for setting up the GB and to everyone who took the time to comment in my WIP thread.

H's Lightning. 

Tamiya 1/100 scale. A great little kit with some cracking detail then some shocking joins. Decals ok but no wing walks so these where hand painted with the hairy brush. Silver is Tamiya rattle can. 

This is the second model I have completed in this BlitzBuild along with Little H's Lancaster.

Italeri Kübelwagen

334th Infantry division North Africa 1942-43

Agama colors and patinator

Panduro matt varnish

 

I messed up some parts, it's now well hidden in the patinator

I also lost the cut-out window twice, better leave it off then.

Fun build but I'd needed at least one more hour to solve the small errors

[Mrs PlaStix]

Meng 'Toon' Tiger 1 

My first tank is now complete, I never thought I'd ever build one  - I prefer to leave anything with tracks to Mr P... but I've really enjoyed building this even if it was a bit tricky at times.

Many thanks to Enzo for organising the GB, it's proved an interesting way to spend a Bank Holiday weekend and has provided a welcome distraction from thinking about work.

 Stix has taken so many photos it's been hard to select just 5...
