I think he means like this:


This tamiya Tiger mid production is one i did for the 1/35th Tiger 1 group build. It has an Eduard barrel, Eduard PE, Friu transport tracks, and tank workshop hubs. I ended up using very little of the eduard PE, and made my own fenders to fold. I added a lot of little stuff that are hardly noticeable, but i am still very proud of this tank. if i had it to do over, i would not bother with the eduard PE.



I used the vinyl tracks from the early Tiger, and added a wire for the headlight. Otherwise, this tamiya late Tiger is OOTB. My first all out zim job, and it was OOTB (which has become increasingly hard for me to do).



this tamiya marder has a verlinden interior. I had started to try to super detail this kit without using after market items, but the task was just too much for me. I got about 1/4th of the way through the super detail project, and decided to paint it as it was. I am especially proud of the paintjob that i did on this one. For some reason this is the only model that i have that does not look better in photos. if you see this model in person, the paint job really stands out.

if you are interested, more pics of these models, and more can be found on my website:
http://home.comcast.net/~williamehler/


These are 3 models that i am proud of, all for different reasons.

I hope to see lots of fine models on this thread. All J-Hulk needs is an excuse to post pics of his E100Big Smile [:D]Wink [;)], or how about that king tiger from the movie "The Battle of the Bulge" that he built. Both of which are excellent models I must add, and I hope to see them both.


This thread could get hard to load...

Well ok then my bad. J-hulk sure does like showing those two off whenever he can. Here's two I'm proud of:

M4A3 Sherman, built straight OOB.


Leoaprd 2 A5- Only thing added was the netting on the front made from cheese cloth. First try at a camo paint job.


Both kits were great, definatly my top two picks so far out of four completed armor builds.

Tamiya's Chruchill Mk. VII backdated to a Churchill Mk. III at Dieppe


DML's M4A1 Sherman with Verlinden's T1E3 Mineroller

Happy Modelling and God Bless Robert

This is my BMP-2 from DML, not a bad build but there was a fit problem at the rear of the upper hull and the tracks were a pain.

i used an airbrush on all of them
on the first picture i sprayed the colour over the base coat very finely gradually building up the colour

The panthers ambush was first sprayed on and I used a small paint brush for the spots
The kingtiger was done the same as the panther but the spots were sprayed on

This is my M36 B1



This is Italeri's kit. I scratch built the sand bags out of 2 part epoxy putty. I also add a little detail to the inside of the turret, because other than the main gun there is nothing in there. The figures are Tamiya except the driver he's a Dragon, there's even one more figure you can't see he's sitting in the gunners seat.

I'm posting these pics because they're the only ones I've got.

I'ld love to post some of mine but I am a bit inept at doing this. I did have success at the Armorama website, so if you are curious, go over there and check out Blaster76's gallery. I have a few on it as I am posting stuff as I photo it.

Capt. Thanks for the nice comments. The grass is nothing more than Celluclay that I airbrushed in greens and browns. I'm glad you liked the relaxed look of the crew because I was tring to get that look like they're waiting for something, orders maybe, a panzer to come into range, or maybe someone to come and get them unlost.
