Hi guys. Here are some progress reports from the workbench:

I am in the process of doing my 14th diorama and so far I have almost completed the tank. It looks like a Sherman, IMHO. :lol:

Seriously it is the Dragon M4A2 Red Army Sherman. I will be adding some figures and groundwork this week...

This is my first work in 2 months so I feel a bit rusty. If I missed something please point them out. BTW this is a great kit. My only comment is that the dust cover which is made of rubber will not sit on the turret surfaces firmly and the tracks are a bit loose (see gap between the tracks and return rollers...)

Junior,

The ZD kit is based on the Italeri FA-18. Sige try natin baka naman kasya.

Sayang talaga di umabot yung project mo. Still, its a good subject kaya tapusin mo kagad pre!

Im thinking of getting the 92F. Basta magka budget. Big Smile [:D]

I had no plans of building an F-14. I was expecting a lot of members would do that. If I had known ... Big Smile [:D]

Yes, I originally started work on an FA-18A. But 30% into the project I discovered that the nose cone was missing. Angry [:(!] So much for Zeng Dhefu quality. So I shifted to the Gripen. I started work on the Gripen years ago, and so I just took it out of the shelf.
Big Smile [:D]

Magkano kaya GBB Beretta 92F? Wink [;)]


allan

i was also thinking of building the ESCI F-18 or the smaller F-35 before the Gundam G-magna which ended with the Alpha, ewan ko paano nagyari yun, the IMAI Alpha is basically a poor fit and more of a toy to begin with than a model so, katay la ako masyadong 48 kits so puro 72s i used parts from the ESCI F-18 and F-15 wings, practice with future using their canopies.Tongue [:P]

sayo na lang yun F-18 nose cone kasya kaya?Smile [:)] Zeng Dhefu? san kayang F-18 kit nila binase?Wink [;)]

92F? around 6k ata..

Nope, that rifle isn't a model kit... It's a newly released airsoft rifle... something the Tabak Legionnaires have been drooling on for some time. Big Smile [:D]

gamitin mo na lang yung existing butt mo your stock can hold a larger bat. and gives better balance unlike my baby (M4) its becoming too forward heavy.
