Re: 1/18th Scale P-47N & P-51D Repaint

I'm late to your posts but wow, these are two fine custom planes :!: :!: I think 1:18 is a great for display in a museum setting, while
1:32 might be a good space saver this larger scale is more impressive. I may have to check out your museum one day, I'm on that island to your south. :)

Re: Back in the Good Ol Day's

Those are some nice Planes, I was only able to get one 21at Spitfire. I especially like the Spit after seeing one at an airshow close up
and then seeing it in flight!

Re: Normandy Customs

No, I haven't seen any others. It would be nice to see what other paint schemes others chose. I still have the TA 183 Huckebein with full cockpit and landing gear to build. I haven't taken on any large projects since January, I had to have hand surgery due to nerve damage. Its much better so for now...

Re: Normandy Customs

Thank you Pickel and YT!! YT the V-2 is 1:16 from IMEX, its an old Vac-U-Form kit and is a "Cut-Away". Your able to see the internal parts, I chose to paint the entire model so painted over the clear side. The TA 183 Huckebein is the kit from Pazzaguy, Nathan Hortchem. The one you built and painted ...

Re: My RAAF Association Display

Very impressive display Studly!!
I've always liked the way scale models look with the actual historical 1:1 items and 1:18 scale really complements the display.

Re: 1/18 Scale Sturmtiger 2023

Nice work Pickel, it seems to be correct. I like the overall look of your Sturmtiger and I could
see it with Grunts Tiger I snap together tracks. That would look cool!

Might need a couple of sets... :)

The model is styrene sheet, 21st Panther drive sprockets and road wheels plus the commanders hatch and one hatch from a 21st Tiger I. The Tracks are from Grunt 1"s / Battleground models, excellent 1:18th scale snap together PantherTrack Set. The addition of these tracks to any 21st Panther changes t...

Re: Normandy Customs

E 79 This is a "What If" or "Paper Panzer" I started in summer '21. It is loosely based on the E-10 and my interpretation of a cross between the Panther and T-34 running gear setup. https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/a551/Normandy02/IMG_3971.jpeg https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/a551/Norma...

Re: Are Mods The Thing of the Past ?

I think the issue is not as many collectors as in the past and the availability of 1:18. As you said the price has increased but I still cut up 21st to make customs/Mods. I think they're a great base to start from and could always use more detail. I was never into RC tanks so I didn't go the 1:16 rc...

They've removed the tanks muzzle break, which might create that illusion.
