SO was I until mate who is into military vehicles told me how much heavy kit you need if something goes wrong.  Youre talking a completely new workshop.

That's pretty cool. Buy it, put it in the shed & take it for a drive maybe twice a year...

Drive it everyday because it only. Takes 35mph to outrun your troubles

 

Funniest part of driving the commer was taking 1.5 light cycles to get across the terapa rd traffic lights, even with a running start

I've got a kit of my Chevy in the stash, maybe it should be next on the list. Kind of fancy doing it as it was after it had  finished the Alaska Highway & was just a yellow maintenance truck.

Cheers, having a bit of a play, donno how historically accurate it all is etc, but learning some lessons as I'm getting back into the groove of modelling.

The airbrush is proving a good investment, glad i got it.

If you feel like going back to pleb-spec with a brush, a lot of Japanese armour was painted with brooms...

That way you be historically accurate and it hides a lot of sins.

Would I use a full size broom or a 1/35th scale one ?

[Alfashark]

Come on now, start with a full size one and whittle it down...

Watched Patton last night, keen for some more tanks.

Apologies for being slightly off on a tangent, but man, does this bring back childhood memories:
