Great looking fake paper panzer. Will be used in a small diorama.

He saw these trailer hitch covers and thought they were cool so we busted out the 3d printer.

Hello all,

In the middle of building my Hanomag here and I need help deciding if I should add some red brown stripes in between the green ones that I’ve already painted. I really like the look as is and I feel like adding the red brown will make it feel more crowded and busy. However, it will knock down the dunkelgelb a bit, which I also like, thoughts? TIA

So i am planning on buying 1:48 Tamiya U.S. Navy Douglas A-1H Skyraider with the Toilet bomb from Brengun.

i just wanna know:

1. what bombs is the plane carrying,

2. do you know any 1:48 scale model figurine that looks like that crewman on the picture? as close as possible, i wanna try to re create that image, it is my first time doing something like this,

2.5) and if you guys dont know any figurine, do you know even better picture of people posing in front of the toilet bomb to re create? please, any help or cool picture will be appreciated, thank you.

This turret was scratch built by me and it is referenced in one of the realistic military vehicle game named War thunder, hatches are functional, gun functions well.

The hull is from Tamiyas 1:35th Scale King Tiger Ardennes front edition.

The camo scheme was taken inspiration from a WTlive post.

Reason for the evident lego parts in the inside of the turret it is meant to hold the upper turret, so that i can do some maintenance on the gun, preventing me both of gluing the whole upper turret apart and hassling to slowly pry it open and eventually damaging the turret, preventing further repairs.

Hope you enjoyed my Post Thanks!

Fun fact: the D4Y dive bombers could be launched but not recovered by the battlecarrier.

Newbee to building. I am adding details today and decide to install the tracks. Not fun!!! However🛑 The detail painting was fun🥹

Hi guys. I made this after about a year's break for university. Im curious about where you guys think I could improve.

Particularly on the painting and weathering. Lmk what you think.

Have Fun!

Zimi Model has acquired moulds from Dragon and will launch new kits under the DRAMi Model brand while Dragon moves towards intellectual property, 3D technology, digital assets and more.

Doing some battle damage and a lot of small modifications, the engine hatch was modified to open for an engine display.

The main battle canon was made to move up and down.

Machine gun also was made to swivel.

Added copper cables and battle damage, reactive armor front side exploded from heavy impact, same with right fender.

will finish with some more attachments and extra details.

So far i feel good about the build, paint will give it real life.

How's the build going fellas?
