I have decided to put both the Land Rover and GMC blogs on hold for the time being to concentrate on actually getting some models completed.
First off is Italeri`s AB-41 which will be finished as a captured Polish Carpathian Lancers vehicle as used in Egypt for training. Kit is 1/35th and totally out the box apart from a few bits of plastic card for filling joints etc.
Next up is Tamiya`s classic 35122 M4A3 Sherman. Here I have used Evergreen 0.20 plastic rod on the upper hull to replicate the weld beads around the hull, and boxed in the open sponsons. I have used Formation resin wheels on the bogies instead of the open back kit parts. I also have added Lion Marc pre-form brass upper skids and added the brass bolts to the underneath of the bogie trucks.
Next up is Italeris old Chevrolet 15cwt. I am using a small Eduard brass etch set, Hussar resin wheels and the body is loaded with some new Value Gear Details resin crates as a part of the load.
Hope you like my update and realise that I have been doing some modelling!
Best wishes
