Re: German 3.7mm anti tank gun 1/18th

Had never seen one before, did not know someone had 3D printed one :)

Thanks for the link on that, always good to see what others have done before.

German 3.7mm anti tank gun 1/18th

Another of my builds. Wanted more artillery, so built one from scratch, tried to give it a lot of detail, lot of small parts. http://s1313.photobucket.com/user/aracula/media/german37mmpak001_zps2975fce9.jpg.html?sort=3&o=4 http://s1313.photobucket.com/user/aracula/media/german37mmpak003_zps9fec59d3....

Re: 1/18th Schwere Zugkraftwagen

The 21st century one i have is a 1/35 scale, it is the only scale they made so that would take a lot of pumping, so no I am just using it for reference. :D

Re: New "Knock Off" Ultimate Soldier 1:18 Figures?

I have seen a bunch of knock offs coming out of China, I would say they still have the molds from 21st Century, and are still using them as they please.

Re: 1/18th He-111 H-6 Medium Bomber

Good advice, work I done was all on top I did not consider cutting off the side skirts but should have, will do that from now on. I measure, cut, and glue, and sand a lot on the parts I make, and should modify what I start with a bit more for accuracy. When I started building tanks like 15 years ago...

Re: 1/18th He-111 H-6 Medium Bomber

Thanks about the car.

Am restoring a 1966 Galaxie 500 fastback 428 car now. Love working on the old cars, I restore all of them from the interior, to the body, and frame, and motor. It is a a lot of work fixing them, but love the way they turn heads when they are done.
