Dragon VK.45.02(P)H

I've brought my almost perfect year long run of starting a model and not finishing it to an end. Dragon 1/72 VK.45.02(P)H wrestled together against its will so that I could practice painting splinter camouflage for another project. Built pretty much OOB except for shaving off the pioneer tools to give it more of a "prototype" feel.

Plastic Soldier 15mm T-34s WIP

A WIP photo of the Plastic Soldier T-34s that are on my workbench.  I built them OOB with the multi-part tracks, but if Plastic Soldier included the single part option, as seems to be the case with the Panzer IV, I would have used them to save a few minutes on the build.  I included some cast texture on the 85mm turrets with a bit of acrylic impasto medium (I put a dab of contrasting acrylic paint into the medium so that I can see where I've been, as it is translucent when it dries).  I also built the 76mm turrets so that they can be mixed and matched for versatility on the gaming table.


I haven't weighted any of my Plastic Soldier models, but I understand that some gamers do to prevent them from floating across the table.

Sturmpanzer Brummbar WIP

 I have made some slow progress with the Gasoline conversion of the Sturmpanzer Brummbar around work and study commitments.  I am not happy with the dirt streaks on the side of the superstructure and will have a crack at toning them down a bit.  Still a little more touching up required with the figure as well.

1/48 Tamiya Kettenkrad with Gas-O-Line PaK 36


Putting together these two little kits while I build up enough enthusiasm to tackle the rest of the etched brass on my Tiger II. I will include one of the excellent Total War Miniatures figures of HG division trop infantry in a small vignette.
