It was a good year, productive year for armor kits at my workbench. Got a few projects done from last year and started doing reviews for IPMS. also my wife signed us up for Weight Watchers in May and I have found the more build the less I snack at night. So 60 pounds lighter, I now have 10 kits done for the year.

Finished Dragon M7 Priest:

Tamiya Panzer II ausf A/B/C done for the Blitz in the West Group Build:

Dragon’s Stug III, Ausf G, Mid 1943 Production:

Looking forward to 2013 with even more builds. I am about half way through Trumpeter’s SU-152 Early kit.

Thanks for looking.

Thats a good productive year.I do like your streaking technique evident on your Panzer II,KV-85,and Paladin.Here’s to another good year.

Great gallery wildman! My only nitpick would be to cut the length of the StuG III antennae. They were fixed in height and not that long. HTH

Looks like a very productive 2012 Tim, here’s to more in 2013! [B]

BTW: I forgot to say — I’m terribly JEALOUS of your productivity!!! I’ve definitely hit a lull. Bleah!

Great lineup Tim. I love them all. Especially like that Pz II. [;)]

I can’t believe that then Waffentrager doesn’t tip over with that long-barreled 88mm.

I might have missed your other armor, but I’m glad you took the time to share it.

Thanks, guys, for the positive comments. I do need to weather the Stug so more, but I kind of lost interest in it.

We dropped cable TV in late 2011, so that took away a HUGE distraction and waste of time. Now it’s Netflix or the radio while building.

We need more forum members to post their builds. I love looking at photos and getting tips from you guys.

Wow, somehow I missed all of them other than the Panzer II. Great work all around but I love the Priest and KV-85!

All looking good, hope to see the same this year…cheers…Kenny

These are all great Tim! You outdid yourself last year! I remember the Pz. II from Eric’s GB, but I missed the others. The Kinetic M109 and Trump’s KV-85 are kits I’ve been thinking of getting and your builds are convincing me to add them in 2013!! Very nice work sir and hope to see more this year!

WOW, some really nice work there! Nice to see that Asdelt-Rheinmetal 8.8cm Pak 43 Waffentrager: built up; I have a soft spot for Waffy’s. Got 'em all. :wink:

Some nice weathering and finishing on display here, too.

And a big CONGRATS!! on he new die and weight loss–THAT’S even more impressive than your models! [Y]
