On my very cluttered workbench 9/11/10...

"Hard Core 7" - a Jaguar Models M551 Sheridan AR/AAV I've been working on, on and off, for years. It fights me all of the way. Last month, while fitting it for its display base, I actually dropped it off the workbench. It performed a graceful, slow-motion, swan dive and landed upside-down on the floor. A bit dismayed, a bit bemused - I set out to put it back together. I'm back at it again, sizing it up for adding the Crew and eventually some Infantry riders...

I recently began working on an M1A2 Abrams ISEP TUSK I Main Battle Tank, commissioned to appear "factory-fresh" and in tri-color "NATOflage". I'm using Dragon Models' #3536 as the base around this project...

These are all awesome! Great to see so much.

 

In addition to all I have been working on (as shown in my Maddog manufacturing Thread) and the two French armored cars I started, I had also started a third model: Trumpeter's LAV/AT vehicle for my Marine Corps.

Thanks a lot I buy all my kits from Mac's Modeling He is great to deal with and if he doesn't have it he can order what you want. Here a link to the manufactures website you can see all the different kits they make Tameo

I've got a 1/144 Fletcher, a Lindber Minesweeper, a Verlinden Coast Artillery piece that I've got going. Probably get the Coast Artillery piece off first (It's a freebee for a Museum). The other two will be backlogged in November as I've committed to build a 1/200 Arizona for one of the club members. It's going to be a long year. I never seem to have the time and ambition together so I can work on anything. Hopefully, the rainy season will change all of that.

Lessee...

 

- Pyro/Lindberg 1/200-ish Brig-of-War, with many scratch bits. This one's been in the yards for a few years, but it's getting close.

- 1/144 B-52H (Revell) to join Mr. TOAD KC-135A (also Revell) on alert; about 50% done.

- MSW Phantom Pilot Boat...see "several years" above, as in "35". I think the scale is about 1/48.

 

And - I actually did *finish* something - !!! That would be the Valiant Miniatures Mermaid (approx. 54mm), for my lovely bride. Yeah, I should proll'y post some pix of that.

A Tamiya 1:48 Sherman Firefly. I'm adding brass details to the basic kit.

and a 1:72 Sd.Kfz. 251/2 Ausf.D mit Wurfrahmen 40 rocket launchers. A nice kit with lots of detail. Is taking a long time and mucho patience to get this one headed toward the primer!

I have several projects going on. One of them is this German 223 armoured car. I actually have it built and in the process of weatering and adding detail to it right now. I will post photos of it on the armour forum later when complete. As far as the other projects I have a build log going on the armour forum for that also. it is the Tiger-I build log. Two other kits going T-55 and a diorama with a T-34. Those two are taking a back burner for now.

Looking good Dennis! I built that little Sdkfz 251 mysefl some time back, along with her sister the Ausf C version. I even have one with the steel crates in the stash, been hesitant to start it so far. Those P/E rocket boxes are intimidating!

 

Keep plugging Dennis and Chris! You guys are doing awesome!
