Modeling Subjects Armor

Well these are my final completed armor kits for this year. All in 1/35. Skif’s BMD-1P started last year, marked as a Guards Airborne unit; Tamiya’s Ford GPA started as a weekend build sometime back, which then fell by the wayside during painting, completed in USMC markings; and the 1/35 Pit Road IJA/IJN Motorcycle with sidecar. All were completed this evening after a week of finishing up several “near completion” kits to close out 2010.

Thank you Bill. I have a few more AFVs that should be completed early on this year. As long as everything works out [;)] And I spend more time in the paint shop and less time on here…[whstl]

SP: Great work on the Japanese bike and sidecar. Thanks for posting them, I was wondering how they came out.

The BMD-1 and Ford aren’t too shabby either [Y]

Nice work, that’s a good collection. I think I finnished one thing maybe…

That BMD’s pretty small!

Great collection! I have to agree with other guys… I really like that Japanese motorcycle because it is unique that we don’t see it often. Thanks for sharing! [Y]
