Woohoo - first one in. Old Airfix 1/76 Grant, in an anonymous scheme like so many of them were. New turret, sand skirts and stores, otherwise pretty much OOB.

This is an Esci Valentine, and is the first tank I've built since a Tamiya King Tiger aged 11 !

 

I have really enjoyed doing something completely outside my comfort zone, which is normally things with wings. Work in progress below

 

 

Thank you everyone for the advice and encouragement along the way, I hope you like it

 

cheers Pat

Here's my Potez 25, circa April or May 1941, Greece...against the Italians I imagine.  And just in time for the 60th anniversary of 'Oxi (O-hee) Day', which is tomorrow!  No parades this year...and it is supposed to rain all over the country...Oh well.  I good day to stay inside and build models!

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohi_Day

 

The WiP is here.  

 

Very nice kit.  Well designed, well-moulded.  No flash I could find.  Nice PE although it wasn't necessary to use it.  There are plastic counterparts on the sprue.  

The decals are thin but manageable.  Do be careful with the solvent!  All the paints are Vallejo Air or Vallejo.  Rigging is my usual mix of monofilament and stretched sprue.

 

I hope to come back to this GB before December for another build or two.  Some of the work being done and already built is lovely stuff.  For now I will focus on the Vietnam and Heller GeeBees. 👍😁
