I went to a IPMS competition near me, I got around 12-15 models for under 50$
I got a WWII russian anti tank gun 1/35th scale made in 1976

well i planned to have my pz 38 done for a comp. this weekend, after which i would start on my build. but i found out that mixing school, x-country, and getting only 5 hours of sleep doesn't mix well when yer trin to build. well, NEways, maybe luck and a sugar high will be on my side, and i can get it done for the comp. not to worry about my build for the group tho, im far enuff ahead that if i dont have it done this weekend, i will have it done next.

Well, I am guessing there have been less posts because of school. I know I have been really busy. I have spent alot of time trying to finish a dio, and it looks like I will finish By Friday night. I will post pics of it when I get the digital camera back from my sister. The title of the the dio will most likey be "Herbst 1944" which in Eniglish translates to "Fall 1944" well, back to work!

yup 1/72. the camera takes bad indoor pics, and bad close ups. i took about 10 pics of the front and that was the best.

closer and closer to being done...........all there is left to do is weathering (my favorite part) touch ups on the isignias which i painted to better fit the rivets........their pretty good...and the numbers which were alittle too big from the USS cole model decals so i freehanded them they look pretty good too....then itll be done and ill be on the zero FINALLY which is by far a BETTER KIT!!! so itll take less time.....WOOOOO!!! i have to get batteries and then i have to take all the pics and at the very end post them.....SORRY
