Here is the latest model I finished for this month. I just managed to squeak this over the finish line at the end of this month.
Before that, here is an updated pic of the Israeli Nagmasho't now that I found and installed the two missing ammo boxes:
Now the last model finished in June. This is the 1/72 scale ACE Israeli Centurion Sho't Meteor tank:
Since I had both of them out, I decided to shoot this pic of the Centurion escorting the Nagmasho't:
There you go. Hopefully in July I can get a couple of these large aircraft done, among others.
Thanks for looking in, comments are welcome.

Bravo Mark! The Centurion is such a classic tank! And this latest of yours came out looking good! Nice pairing with the Nagmachon.

Well done. Never seen a Nagmachon. Seems like a vehicle Chesty Puller would have liked: "We're surrounded. That simplifies the problem"
Thanks,

Re: The Duke Finishes One More in June.
Thank you Carlos! I agree, the Centurion is such a classic. I'm so glad someone finally came out with one in my scale! Not only that, but Alexey even released several variants of it too! I do like the paired photo too.
Bruce!! Thank you ever so much for checking in and posting! Your replies mean the world to me.
John, thanks! I agree, I think the Israelis were thinking the same thing when they came up with those heavy APCs. Just so you know, this one is not the Nagmachon. Here are the two heavy APC's, this one is the Nagmasho't:
And this is the Nagmachon:
They have a late version of the Nagmasho't that is not kitted, but it is the same as this one, except with gun shields, similar to the TUSK kit around the Abrams machine guns. I'm thinking of getting another of these and trying to replicate that if I can. For now though, I have many other projects to consider.
Thanks again guys!

LOL! What a scream! Hey, I don't know very much compared to you and so many others, so when I do know something; it's only right that I share it right?
