The Duke's Armor finished in April

Post by Duke Maddog »

After some marathon building over the past couple days, I finally have a few models to show. These are my armor models completed as of yesterday. I have eight of them finally done.

First is the 1/72 scale ACE Italian 508CN Coloniale Staff car:

My apologies for the poor pics. This is a tiny one and I seemed to have had a tough time keeping steady on this one.

In keeping with the theme of tiny vehicles and such, here is my 1/72 scale Airfix British Airborne Jeep from the British Airborne Set:

Image

It also came with a pallet to land this thing from aircraft. Here it is sitting on that pallet:

Image

This Jeep above was also equipped with a trailer:

Image

Image

It was also equipped with a 75mm Pack Howitzer to assist airborne troops with artillery support:

Image

Image

Image

Here is the whole British Airborne Set together:

Next up, my Japanese Army takes delivery of the 1/72 scale IBG Type 3 Chi Nu Medium Tank:

Image

Image

Image

And finally, my Russian Army has taken delivery of three new vehicles. This first one is the 1/72 scale ACE BREM recovery vehicle:

Image

Image

Image

It doesn't show well in these pics, but that hook is painted a steel color. I don't know why it shows up this way.

Moving on, I also finished up the 1/72 scale Takom MAZ-537 Tractor:

Image

Image

Image

Also, in that same kit was the 1/72 scale Takom KZKT-537 Tractor:

Image

Image

Image

And that completes my latest run of models for April. I might even have more finished in a week or three.

Stay tuned and thanks for looking in, comments are welcome.

Nice! Now go build a Nebelwerfer. :giggles:

Been looking for a decent one myself in 1/35 scale. I know Italieri has one with the Demag.

Thanks Blacksheep! As for the Nebelwerfer....

Already built four....

All in 1/72 scale..... :lashed:


Thanks Carlos. Once again, they do look better in person. One day I'll get this camera stuff figured out.

Thanks Floki! I do tend to do a lot of models in batches. (Batches?! BATCHES?! We don't need no steenkeeng batches!)

Mark, bring them to AMPS or IPMS... I’ll try some photos with my phones camera. That’s how I do mine 99.9% of the time nowadays. Great for close up work.
