The Duke's First Armor for 2014
Posted by Duke Maddog on Monday, February 10, 2014 12:18 AM

It's not even really armor, but these two models now bring me up to 645 completed ground vehicles in 1/72 scale.

This first one is my Japanese truck with the mobile kitchen and water trailer. Here it is all completed:





Next up is a model I was doing for the First Blood Campaign on the Modeler's Alliance Forums. This is the Infantry Horse Drawn Wagon with Zwillingslafette 36. It does still look a bit crude, but I did my best on it. I'm glad it is finally done; this thing is so delicate and fragile:





Here is a little closeup showing the machine guns and the P/E aiming reticle that was in two pieces and was a real bear to complete!



There they are; my first finished models for 2014. Hopefully I'll have a few more following them soon to the shelf.

Thanks for looking in, comments are welcome.

Oh I could make some comments on that Japanese field kitchen, but I will save them for Peter, Luis and AMPS next time that I can attend there ;-)  Nice work there my friend! I bet those ring and bead  sights for the MGs was a pain! They look it, but at the same time it pays off!

 

F is for FIRE, That burns down the whole town!

U is for URANIUM... BOMBS!

Sweet little builds there! Were these all from kits? Is there some scratch building going on here? Either way, decent work!

Bill.

On the bench:  Lindberg 1/32 scale 1934 Ford Coupe and a few rescue projects.

In queue:  Tamiya 1/35 Quad Tractor or a scratch build project.
