Here’s one I made earlier......

[Si Benson]

Afternoon all,
Thought I would share some of my previous builds with the S.M massive.....I would imagine most of the old MM gang have seen already, but I’m sure they won’t mind looking again?

First off is Dragons Firefly built in honour of Johnny G.....a fallen comrade.



Next up is another Dragon kit of a pz IV




Next up is Revells 1:72 sdkfz 7 and 88mm flak









Then another 1 72nd.....an Su-76 by UM




Hope you like so far. I got a few more to post up after dinner
Thanks for checking in
All comments welcome

That war hammer paint was like tipex to apply back in them days!

Fernando, Pete & Rick,
Thanks for looking in

As I don’t have a man cave for my modelling (work off the kitchen table)...I Had to make some room and cleared some boxes of built kits and stumbled upon this.
Built it end of last year and boxed it until I could make a base....then forgot about it!

It’s Trumpeters T54-A....from 2001, not the best kit but cheap. I added a set of Trumpeter Indy link tracks, modified the wheel hubs, tweaked the external fuel cells adding fuel lines, added rivets and handles, cut off the kit fenders and made my own thinner versions.

I went completely ‘artistic license’ on the colour scheme....

Nice find! Should be on display not in a box

 

[Si Benson]

Cheers Steve,
This was one of them, ‘fell in the shopping basket because it was cheap’ kits. I wanted to put this in a Syrian type setting in an urban area.

[scottie3158]

Si,
If I had built that there is no way it would be in a box I would have that in pride of place for all to see.

 

[minitnkr]

The box find is awesome. Awaiting the PzrII dio. Should be a winner. PaulE

Nice choice of colors. A good balance between light and dark.
