Hurrah, ive managed to achive my aim of building 12models in 12 months by completing these latest 3.

  1. Trumpeter 1/72 T26E4 Pershing

One of 25 E4s built from an original order of 1000 that were built too late to see any action

  1. hasegawa 172 PanzerIVF1

I wanted to get this kit out the way in preperation for future and hopefully far superior Dragon kits.

  1. Revell 1/72 Warrior

The first of serveral Warriors I intend to build so this one was an otb build with a little fret to get a feel for this kit.

Any comments welcome as usual

First of all congrats on acheiving your goal of 12 models in 12 months.[#toast]

The 1/72 PanzerIVF1 looks great, nice weathering on the lower hull. The 1/72 Warrior looks awesome, very nice weathering, it really makes this build pop.[tup] The 1/72 T26E4 Pershing looks great too, but it just doesn’t look weathered enough in my opinion, it just seems way too clean.

wow nice looking builds. is it that time all ready the year in review? you have given me my idea for what i want to build in the un gb the warrior looks really great. whos kit did you use for it?

The clean look is intentional. The only pics ive seen of this tank show it as ‘factory fresh’ and as it was never used in action, eventually being used for target practice, I thought a claen look was more accurate

It was the Revell 1/72 kit with some extratech fret for the baskets. Its a very easy kit to build with no real work requred on it.

Congrats on reaching your goal, some fine examples there to add to the completed list for sure. [tup]

I actually like the Warrior the best and I’m a WW II nut. LOL Man that gun on that Super Pershing is out-of-sight. That would have been a rude awakening for a Tiger crew.

Congrats on achieving your goal. I’d be happy with a 1/4 of that goal.
