What's on the bench 2022

[JMARC]

Bank Holiday mojo high, and still waiting on a delivery of AM tracks for my other project...so thought I would have some fun practicing some more scratchery on a toon. View attachment 452451

NNNNNNNNNNeat !

After a run on the floaty things fancied a change.

Not sure about the tracks, there are length and link in the box, so maybe the bronco's are a bit OTT. I will see how they look.

Nice purchase. Good tank that, pity about the gun….
With the tracks, the only really important bit is the running surface. The rest is pretty much invisible, so if the kit tracks nail this you are home free…..

In the kit or the real one?
The tracks are well hidden aren't they. I might use some on the hull as spares/armour.

Sorry, the real one…….like putting a 37mm on a tiger……

This is a nice kit goes together in typical Tamyia way, I built one a few years back. It was my first attempt at the caunter scheme. Which is fun due to the engine decks. I will follow along.

If the kit has link-and-length tracks, then I think I would just used those instead of the hassle of separate-link tracks that probably won’t add much over what’s in the kit already.

That's a nice kit Ian. I think I would go with the kit tracks. A lot is hidden and it will be easier.

 

[Ian M]

It's not my first waltz with Matilda. I built one a while back having a go at one of the other options this time.

Hi all
Some new little blokes off the assembly line…..

To be used as Ogre line breakers. A bit bigger than my recent chaps, but still relatively small in general modelling terms.
Completed figures shot with more pictures here…..

Wow Tim, I didn't know they made figures of Stevie (Jones) in that scale. Love the one in the middle with the 9 iron on his shoulder. Stevie would be proud!!! The shading and highlights of the skin tones are incredible Sir!!! Another fabulous job from the "Bench of Marlow".......

Prost auf Stevie

Cheers Allen. I’m going to have to look up this Stevie character now aren’t I LOL…skin tones are my usual job of over all skin colour, highlights, flesh wash, then reinforced highlights…..pretty simple but gives great results….

Thanks Jim. Funnily enough, I just thought of them as looking like big Zulus once I started painting them…

John.

Many thanks John. Really kind of you to say. They are very nice figures aren’t they. I got them at a show in London because the company are US based and postage for just one pack would kill the deal….

Tim,
Outstanding mate, the one on the right I think I went out with his sister a while back.

Cheers for the compliment Scottie, really appreciate it. Hope you treated her right, by the way, mate. You wouldn’t want him chasing you after dark would you…

Decided on this today

Hi everyone just slowly plodding with these two in between gardening and enjoying the sunshine.
