  1. Thanks for checking it out and the encouraging comments! Mark, it did not come with any figures, which is a shame because ICM has produced some nice ones recently. I bet there are some good ones for Red Army artillery out there. I will likely add a figure to the base shortly. David, this is really a staightforward build. I actually took it on the road and did my parts cleanup there. I do recommend the WWP monograph "WW2 Soviet Anti-Tank Artillery". It helps clarify the instructions a bit.
  2. A nice little kit by ICM. The make some really nice Russian/Soviet guns. Let me know what you think.
  3. An outfit in Australia called Just Planes has them listed on thier website. Anyone know anything about them? Or where to get them stateside?
  4. Yes, I was amazed (I don't know why I should be) at the amount of griping at a famous armor site about the kit already...and us tank guys wonder why manufacturers are a bit timid about offering us new kits. Have a good build, Jack!
  5. Paddy, love the Terry-Thomas avatar!
  6. Attention Deficit Disorder...it's a gift!
  7. I hope you mean 2005 and not 1993! Funny thing is I think I have one or two in progress from before '93! I too have a Tamiya M113 in progress, albeit the A3. Add to that Trumpeter's M1126 Stryker, Tamiya's Stug IIIG, an Italeri M4A1 Sherman, and Trumpeter M1A1 Abrams (those last two definitely meet the "Pre-'05" criteria!) Somewhere tucked away, I have an M577A2 and M48A5, both Tamiya (with the Lo Model A5 conversion for the Patton), painted but needing a re-do...someday!
  8. Tim, if you can't dig that up, White Ensign has Desert Pink in enamel.
  9. Cool, some lucky vendor will get my $$$!!!
  10. Well done. Must be a sign, my son called as he was walking to work this afternoon in North ATL saying one just flew over his neighborhood.
  11. Unfortunately I only got halfwau thru it. I hope they replay it soon.
  12. Nice build. I love that kit, one of the only a/c that I have a "stash" of.
  13. Gil, great post...thanks for the helpful link!
  14. Unless you have a specific vehicle that you have info on, the general rule of thumb is that if the vehicle came from the unit and was deployed with the unit, the exterior of the vehicle was repainted while the interior was not. If the vehicle was serviced in a depot before deployment, then the interior was repainted at the same time.
  15. Okay, I have found a site with some photos of the Saumur Panzerkampfwagen IA. PzKpfw IA Judging by the photos, and having built the Tristar kit, I would venture to guess it is some ventilation for the gearbox or the brake mechanism. Later Panzers had protrusions over the brake access hatches for ventilation.
  16. Here's a Technical I converted from a Trumpeter BJ-1212 Jeep. It is set in the fictional land of Zangaro, West Africa (from The Dogs of War by Frederick Forsythe). I have recently done some business travels to West Africa and was inspired to create this. The Dushka is a MiG Productions kit. I rigged the tailgate and back end from sheet plastic and brass. My base has some work left, but it's an idea...
