Two More Models in April by the Duke

This month I was able to finish two vehicles, one is a drone and the other a cruise missile. While technically not aircraft, they do fly, so here they are.


First is this Russian cruise missile called the AS-15 Kent. This was a two-in-one kit with one shown in transport mode, the other in flight:

This next one was also a two-in-one kit, containing two MQ-9 Reapers. One option was the Royal Air Force version used in Afghanistan:

My second one will be done as a US Air Force bird, once I find out what markings and numbers are on the one my nephew flies the most.


Thank you all for looking in, comments are welcome.

Do you have a TU-95 to roll that missle up to?
I have a 1/48 reaper in the stash - cool looking drone. May do mine wheels up if possible. They have funky looking landing gear :giggles:

Thank you John! Yes, look further up on my Maddog Manufacturing thread and you'll see the Tu-95 under construction. Those reapers are cool; I can't wait to hear from my nephew on how best to mark my US one.

Thank you Steve!

I think we should all chip in and send Duke a 1/350 aircraft carrier or a 1/32 4 engine bomber :giggles:

Very nice Mark! I've done both the Predator and the Reaper in 1/48. I was amazed how big the Reaper is.

Thank you Cbaltrin! LOL @ your suggestion! If you really wanted to chip in for something, try finding out what I need for my armor collection and pitch in to send me that so I get to 1000 finished vehicle models faster. :lashed: Most of what I need are the bigger trucks and vehicles that I can barely afford if at all. A 1/350 scale carrier or 1/32 scale bomber are far too big and would never get built. They'd get sold so I can get more vehicles.

Thank you Mike! Yeah, I'd like to get a Predator too. Maybe someday. And yeah, those Reapers are big!

Thank you Stuart and Lyle!
