General modelling gallery

[viper3111]

OK as there are a few people who like the idea of a general modelling section I am happy to trial this for a month or so. If you would like to post a 'general' model on this gallery then please do so by replying to this thread. If you would like to post any civil aircraft then we have a whole model section over on our sister forum CA.

If you are unsure about if you can post your model then please PM me, but basically this is for cars, ships, trains, etc.

And tanks!!!!!!!! . regards Paul

[viper3111]

Yep, sorry I missed that of the list but they were intended under the 'General' title so fill your boots

[viper3111]

Shall I start this of then

Here is my elefant I built last year

[tanker]

very nice,how do you make the zimmeritt? nice build.

[Figure8]

That's very impressive, remarkable detailed and weathered look.

I cheated with the zimmerit on this one, its actually a set of PE brass from Eduard with a bit of filler for continuity on the edges.

[viper3111]

That is smart, and nicely done

[MarkG]

Really like that Tonka, top stuff mate..in fact I've just ordered the Zvezda 1/350th Kursk having seen that

Guys,

You might have seen this one before but I thought I would add it to the gallery:

[MarkG]

Smart that is! Is it a kit or ready made? Love to have a go in a real one

[jamesv9820]

It is a kit:

£195.00 of resin, brass etc! Well worth it!

This guy (Howard Whitehead) prodcues some fantastic kits!

Superb mate, some really great kits there Shame the Scammell Crusader is discontinued though, would've made a nice model in the military variant

I finally finished my panzer
I like doing the odd tank as it gets all of the weathering out of my system so I throw everything at them-rust, mud, dirt, grease and smoke.

Any way here it is with my elefant













Now, back to aircraft
I will be starting an IL-76 civilian conversion over on our sister site but then I will be back to FC with hopefully something interesting

[viper3111]

Thats as smart as flip Andy, I hope the old mojo will give you some ideas for the model comp

[Phill318]

That looks really good andy. I've also got an old lotus to do and that might just inspire me to start. (after the model comp of course)

My first foray into non-aircraft modelling for quite some time. Picked this up last year, and have been building it slowly since then.

Hobby Boss 1/35 AARV-7A1











Still got a few finishing touches, like painting the string/wire on the crane, as well as the hook, but otherwise it's pretty much there!

[viper3111]

You dont need an expensive 'brush to spray camo.
I have got my Iawata that cost about £200 which is a nice tool but I mainly use the one I bought from fleabay for £30. As long as you get one with a 0.3 or 0.2mm needle you will be able to do it

[daz greenwood]

Ok back to my beloved armour for a while.

These are the Revell PzKpfw IV Ausf H and J respectively.

Built oob, and using Lifecolour and Revell Aqua paint on them both.

First the Ausf H:

Thanx for looking.

Cheers Daz
