What on the bench?
Posted by blackburge on Friday, August 5, 2016 2:01 PM

Hey Guys, 

 

What's on the bench for you right now? For me it's a Tamyia 1/35 Panzerkamfwagen II Ausf A/B/C  ... I will make a early WWII diorama - French Battle with french crew, German troop, Panzer, 4X2 18 ton german truck and the B1 Bis french tank.

Sunken 1/72 A6M2 Zero,

Revell 1/72 Type IX U-boat

Building a kit from your stash is like cutting a head off a Hydra, two more take it's place.

Right now it's Tamiya's M5A1 with several modifications ongoing. Next is Italeri's M4A1. I'm still working on crew and figures for my Tamiya M4A3, Bronco's M24 and the old Tamiya M10 TD with quite a few mods to it. Eventually, I have to go back and work on my Tamiya M26.

 

Bish: I spent a little time in Norwich when I was stationed at RAF Mildenhall in the '70's. I good friend of mine retired to Norwich.

Thats when i was growing up there. Its changed a hell of a lot since then. I have visited Mildenall a few times. We used to go to the air show in the 80's and last year i was working at RAF Lakenheath.

Seems quite a lot of Americans stay over here when they leave. there is a handful in the Ipswich model club i go to.

I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

Tamiya 1/35 M577 Command Post, and Academy 1/35 M113A2.  Both are about 75% complete, as far as assembly. I'm hung up on practicing with my airbrushes.

Currently working on Dragons Marder II. Also have the Marquette(think thats the name) Marder III with the 76mm gun. The Marder three has been a beast to put together. I was doing so much filling and sanding I finally had to walk away.

So Far Bish Its a really good Kit. No real fit issues or anything like that. Typical mold lines. The PE that comes with it is really tiny atleast for my big fingers. The clamps were really tough for me to put together. Folding was easy just getting them to fit together was the tough part. Eventually I just went with the molded on clamps. I am hoping to have pics posted soon.

Bench? You mean box. I work on a box, lol.

I'm working on Mengs Panzerhaubitze 2000. It's a great kit but the tracks are taking forever. There are 3 parts per link and 98 links for each track. They go together easy enough but clean up is a royal pain.
