Finished the Biber as my contribution to a group build on the other place. I've got an M3 Stuart on the go but I think I need to get back to my safe place and get an aircraft on the bench #HistScaleModels

Not being a figure painter I'm quite happy with how one of these turned out, even if one looks sad and the other startled #HistScaleModels

I don't normally bother with 1/72 pilot figures, especially when the instructions call for their oxygen masks to be removed, but you can't have a Blue Angel F-18 without a Blue Angel pilot. #HistScaleModels

Rubicon Kingtiger finished. My first 1/56, an interesting and enjoyable kit but I'm looking forward to something a little bigger next. #HistScaleModels

Time to hide some of this interior detail. I like the way Rubicon use magnets for the turret and kept some of the panels removable so the interior isn't permanently hidden. #histscalemodels

I have never made a kit that didn't have colour call outs before, I think Rubicon should be paying royalties to Takom as I'm relying on their instructions #histscalemodels

Why did Revell insist on stamping the outside of their kits 😡. In other news these sharp 20p blades are a lifesaver when it comes to masking #histscalemodels #scalemodels
