Another quick update for you. The build is basically done. I am honestly cutting short on a few of the interior details because I am tired of building and I am ready to paint. The "problem" is I am taking the family on a vacation to Hawaii this coming Sunday and I wont be able to start painting in e...

You and me both buddy. This thing has been a shelf queen for far too long.

I had some time to work on the turret interior today as well:

Here are some more update shots. The outside is pretty much done. I just have to affic the rear stowage bins and that's all for exterior. I started work on the interior a couple of days ago and man is it tedious work. Anyway, here are the pics: http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn185/Panzerarm/pant...

Right side tools done

If you don't mind me asking, what type of airbrush do you use? If you have a Hobby Lobby near you, you can get an Iwata HP-CS which is dual action AND gravity-fed, which improves matters. And you can use the 40% coupon on it. Win-Win. I did exactly that to get my second Iwata. Could not beat the pr...

And the front periscopes done:

Thanks!

Going to brush the dust off this thread and bring it back from 2 years ago nearly to update you guys on some work I have done. And in case you were wondering why such a long time between updates, well I have been blessed with a second little one in the time since last posting about this project, and...

Excellent work!

I can't wait to get ALL their new 1:32 releases, especially the: M-10, EASYEIGHT, STRUM TIGER, (Early) TIGER I , SU-100, KV-2 and the 10cm KANNON!!!! Plastic General I am with you on these. The repaints and 'new tooling" items will be under much scrutiny before I commit to buying them. Regardless, ...

Guess not...

Would anyone willing to pick one of these up for me and I would pay cost+shipping? I checked the dollar store by house today and they had nothing.

So correct me if I am wrong, but didnt the development of these sorts of aircraft used to be super secret squirrel stuff? I mean maybe my perspective is a bit off, but did it not used to be that the latest and great stealth and spy aircraft that DARPA and LM's Skunkworks used to develop would be in ...

Beautiful work on the Corsair. I have eyeballed that Avenger kit myself, but have shied away due to the cost as well.

I am not a 1/18 guy, but I do keep my head on a swivel pertaining to such things (solely to bring it to SSHQ friends attention), and I did happen to see something I thought might be new this past week on eBay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/222044805430?_trksid=p2047675.m570.l5999&_trkparms=gh1g%3DI2220448...

More News... On Forces of Valor Facebook. The company commented that in 2017 They will make a T34-76 and a M4A3E8 Sherman. Hope the comments from the company come true. I am digging the sound of that :-) I wonder if they'll work in some "Fury" tank paint scheme to try and cash in on the publicity f...

I'm not sure I understand why you would go to all that trouble and not do anything to the radio in the 250. They weren't completely black: http://fykse.dnsalias.com/radio/old/german1/80wsa1.jpg http://www.panther1944.de/Bilder/Panther/Fu/10Wsc_002_kl.jpg I feel that you stop a step short of present...
