Hey Tiger! Some of your projects look top notch as well!

Keep up the good work!

I'm meaning to get my butt into my finished projects, but buying a house has taken over a little . . .

Will be gald in a few months when it's over and done with and I can setup a dedicated hobby area.

Cent . . . . what did you use for the groundwork??

Top Notch Job!



Cheers Ben, right the mud.
This was made with old turps (and i mean old), the stuff you keep on cleaning your not so good brushes in and still has crud in the bottom and brown chalk. Turned the chalk in a powder then just added the old turps and the crud, when it's dry it goe's lighter and looks like dried on mud. Yacht varnish was then painted on then it looks wet again, only it seals it in.

If it move's its a target, if it stays still its a well disciplined target.

Just to say, pictures of Tiger 211 and the finished Greyhound will be posted too very shortly.

The centurion has gone back for depot level repairs because I got bored with it and felt I could do better.

So that will be next on my bench!


Thanks Richard, i can't wait for the Centurion mate, looking forward to it.

Trust me the Centurion is going to be a brilliant piece of work. I have always wanted to do the centurion my father in law used during the Yom Kippur war. Luckily for me he has sent me some fantastic details! (Photos!) With some very dodgy Americans in the photos who they nicknamed "Vultures" They had one job in mind; to capture any of the latest Russian Armour they came across for evaluation purposes! (Wild!)

Now don't go asking for Pictures as I have been asked not to share, but one I am begging for is with him, his Kal and a JS 3. It was thier kill!

I may try and do it as a dioramma. It will be a bloody big affair!

I go into one a lot about Israel, i am very pro-Israel. I simply refuse to allow Muslims to use a lie to fuel hatred against the the Jews Or the West!

Sorry Ade, not this time mate. It was a nice model to do but it has no interior detial on the hatches so it's in lock down. Going to have a nice name plate made up with 5th Infantry Division Tank Company on though.

Hey Cov, need a favour mate, and we would all love you for it! If I gave you the pics of Latrun on Disc, would you upload them onto the site for all to see again?
