got me a boat

1/48 swiftboat from Revell, very old mould, poor detail, acceptable fit.
I already started chopping it up, I want to try to retrostyle it to interwar.
This is the beginning of my fleet program.
Having a Revell flower class corvette hull lying around for years, I thought I'd start small before ruining the big thing
On board we can see the GI that came with it, a Tamiya 1/48 german and a 28mm Highlander, for comparison

I ordered a Force of Arms Chevrolet M37/T-26 Armoured Car from eBay, but what arrived was a Force of Arms BA-6 but missing the extra 'raised' wheels, never mind, I still have stuck it together and my Republicans will not care.

Shonky photo I'm afraid:

Aha! I think i saw that one floating around on ebay? It's lovely. What are you going to do with. I suppose you're not heading up river in search of colonel Kurtz. Whatever you do....have fun. Cheers.

there are a lot floating around of these on ebay, but this one was a bargain. it was boxed.
I intend to provide a mast and a deck on top of the deckhouse, and exchangable weapons.
It will certainly be useable for all kinds of adventure, so why not some interwar Kurtz.
However, this project just got pushed back on the schedule because of a commitment to a certain convention....

The trains are from a brand called Kusan. I got 'em from an ebaystore aptly called Trainz and I've seen some sets pass the revue since.

6 Freight cars to add to my O-scale trains (no idea what brand, they're a mix of wood and metal)

A Warlord Games/Bolt Action M-24 Chaffee, bought on spec. Hmmmmmm. I've bought some Warlord vehicles before and thought them ok. The Chaffee is a bit hohum. Bad part fit on mine, plenty of flash and only after I started cleaning it up did I notice that the tracks were deformed and had a hole in them. What are supposed to be lift rimgs on the mantlet were cast like wings. Took a bit of filing to get them into shape. Grrrr. To add insult to injury, the tank commander was a miscast and missing an arm. The faults can be hidden with liberal application of 'mud' but overall it looks a bit odd.

Anyway, I know better now, where possible I'll stick to Company B and JTFM. No complaints with any of the purchases I've made with them.

Dinky Toys 'Shado2 Mobile'. 

It's beat-up,worn to heck and has no tracks, but I have wanted one since I was 5 1/2. 

This will be the main ride for my long neglected Pig-Iron Heavy Infantry, so I'll paint it up with a livery to match. Lots of 7TV fun will be had with this one!

Received 3 M26 Pershings from JTFM.  They look remarkably free of flash, almost (dare I say it) works of art.
