SPA Modeler

It's now halfway through March and I'm finally able to post something finished. These are my two latest finished armor models .

This first one is of the Military Wheels 1/72 scale Soviet SG-122. It's a 122mm cannon mounted on a PzIII chassis and hull and covered with a casemate. It was a stopgap project that only had a bout a hundred or so built before the SU-122 was accepted:







The next one is the Trumpeter 1/72 scale Russian SA-6 Gainful. I made this as an East German machine that was repainted with the West German insignia after the German re-unification:







My apologies for the poor pics. These look better in person.

Well, that's all I have completed so far. Stay tuned, I have more to come.

Mark, your photos are not bad. But I do agree that those kits look better in person. Especially the SA-6. That looked great up close at IPMS on Friday.

Thank you Bruce! I try to get the right balance of light to show all the weathering and detail that I see in real life, but it doesn't always happen.

Thank you Carlos! I appreciate the compliments. I also appreciate all your help in determining what vehicles the East German army had at the time of the re-unification.

Great looking builds Duke!

Duke, these are magnificent! I would love to see a video of you working on them....you and the 87 elfs you have helping.

Thanks Floki! I appreciate that.

Thanks Lyle! Maybe someday I'll get someone to video me at Hobby Day as I work on a few models. And according to Bucky on another Forums they are minions not elves. Whatever they are, they do work hard!

Nice!!

Thanks Blacksheep! Stay tuned, more to come.

Never heard of that PzIII-based SG-122, neither of a Bundeswehr-Gainful. Now I'm tempted...

Well done, Mark!
