I'm not sure this forum is good for my wallet or my sanity, in three hours of browsing I've found four new projects to do in three new periods !

Lovely vehicles though, time to buy some goodies methinks...

Firstly a fun and safe Xmas/New Year to anyone who clicks on the wrong thread and lurches in here semi-sober ....

Managed to do a little "me stuff" during the pre-xmas "lull before the storm".  Modellcollect E75 with Motorpool hull upgrade and Rubicon Hetzer.

That is ingenious Brent. You are a stickler for making things look spot on. Looking forward to seeing this come together.

Lol, not as bad as it looks. I've learnt that with the correct application of power tools I can reduce any plastic obstacle to resin dust in short order .... :)

I use a full face dual Hepa Filter mask and extraction ...... though apart from that I'm too old to worry about failing eyesight, respiration problems, cacogenic compounds or diminishing sexual interest, all those have been my close friends for a long time now ...

Re: Just a few vehicles ...... Pre war camouflage craziness

A few old school (minimal chipping and pigments) - old timers.  I think some of these pre-war camos would be interesting on some '46 stuff too. 

cheers

Beautiful camo!
Are those Spanish Civil War Panzer 1's?

I like those FT17s, very vivid.

A chap on the Pendraken forum has used an interwar French camo scheme on a post WWII walker, and it works very well. So definitely worth a go on the bigger scale stuff.

Yeah matey ..... pretty old vehicles though, from WGN.

And thanks Fred. The job was to make them stand out so I did. A bit more "contrasty" than I normally would do and not helped by the camera having a bad CCD day .....

cheers

Seriously jealous. I think I'm a pretty decent AFV modeler but your skills (and how much you get done) are astounding.
