Here are some photos of my latest pieces.

US Bazooka Team - Siegfried Line



This is the start of a small two man vignette. Straight out of the box Dragon figure just cleaned up and carefully positioned.

MIG - 15



This is my MIG - 15 by Tamiya. Painted by hand with the camo in oils. It will end up in a small dio showing off its engine.



This is Dragon's 1/72 Sherman Firefly VC. This kit is a complicated as a 1/35 target. Just started it but looking forward to it.

Also as usually lots of figures but I need a better camera to take pics of them.

Comments always welcome.

Nice Ross, the pose of the figures looks good, I assume the No2 is feeding in the rocket, or attatching the firing leads?

The Mig looks good, as you may know I'm about (that's a time period of up to 12 months ) to start the same kit myself. Did you discover any pitfalls?

Nice looking 1/72 armour kit. I was thinking about doing some 1/48 armour, to enter in the Armour MOM.

keep us posted Ross

Cheers for the comments.

Mal - Yes the 2nd fig is feeding the bazooka. As to the MIG nothing major. The only thing to watch out for is the gun bay/undercarriage fit as once everything has been sealed and you attach this part it did not fit flush at first and required a bit of sanding and filling to get flush. Other than that it is fine.

Looking good Ross.
I really like the camo scheme on the MiG. Is the main colour painted with oils as well.
I don't know how anyone can work on more then 1 kit at a time, if i tried that i would get confused with parts and end up with even less space to work in :-) .

I get easily confused don't worry. And I probably have at least four more figures on the go too. The MIG is painted in Vallejo acrylics with just the camo in oils.
