Actually, he's almost done...I've converted him quite a bit though...Verlinden Panzergrenadier head, and replaced the Panzerfaust with an MG42, and he'll have an MP40 slung over his shoulder. Kit went together very nicely, I have to look into more of those vinyl kits...

I'll post up as soon as I get the primer down, over the next couple of days.

I'm a true Renaissance modeler... I build whatever suits my fancy at that particular moment in time...in 2004, I build the following:

1 S-100 Class Schnellboote 1/72.
1 IJN Cruiser Nachi in 1/500 scale.
1 IJN tanker in 1/700 scale.
1 IJN destroyer in 1/700 scale.
3 1/48 aircraft (Spitfire, Fw-190D-9 and Ta-152)
1 1/32 aircraft (Bf-109G-6)
2 120mm figures
2 200mm figures
1 Viking Longboat
1 9-foot long, all brass ocean liner
6 1/600 scale ironclads (Confederate)
2 1/144 scale planes
1 1/72 tank
3 Warhammer (25mm?) knights on horseback (just because I liked them)
1 Lord of the Rings Fell Beast
1/350 airfield diorama

And by the end of the year, I'll have 2 more 120mm figures done, a 1/4 scale bust.

Half finished projects include a 1/350 Arleigh Burke, 1/700 IJN Takao and Myoko, a JS-2, Tiger II, and 3 Spitfires.

Not exactly a production line...but entertaining nevertheless.

Jeff,
What I do with my personal life is my businessSmile,Wink, & Grin [swg]

Figure Modeler. I wish. Only completed one figure kit so far (Spiderman, he was at the Nats, didn't win but who cares). Have a couple others to do (both Catwoman).

I just sell them.

I actually think I build anything. It is finishing models that I have a problem with.
I like pretty much anything in 72nd, aircraft, armor, ships (especially landing craft and patrol boats), sci-fi and will build the odd car kit (Herbie, Ecto, etc).

What about you? What else besided ships and 1/350 scale aircraft dios?

I thought you were a figure modeler? (tongue firmly planted in cheek)

LCVP drawings
Posted by Anonymous on Tuesday, December 14, 2004 12:12 PM
Hi Everyone.

I am an Spanish modeller and I am trying to build the LCPV from Fonderie Miniatures. I watched the article about it in this page but as always, nothing about the electric winch that opened the bow. I have been trying to contact Omaha Beach and Utah Beach Museums, D-Day Museum in New Orleans, the LCVP Challenge, with no result. The drawings appearing in Internet are not really good and I wonder if anyone in this site knows who this winch worked and if he/she has any drawing or picture with this boat in detail, mainly the electric winch and port side (equalizing seaver, etc) I would be really greatly.

Thanks to everyone indeed and sorry about the language mistakes.
