Hi my name is Steve, I’ve picked up the hobby again after a 30 year hiatus. I especially like to model 1:35 Armor. Finished projects (yes, fully done with figures under a dust cover and on display) include a Tiger I, Steyr 1500 truck and Sherman Tank/ Willy’s Jeep diorama. I’m 90% done with a Panzer IV F2. Waiting in the wings is a StuG III and the “grand daddy big dog” of them all, a German FAMO with trailer. I hope to combine the StuG and FAMO, like the box shows, into a diorama. Im considering a winter scene.
With each new model I like to try something new and different. I have a natural ability with painting (my dad was an airbrush artist) and I’m good at model building (I’m an Architect), so modeling is a great combo for me and a good distracton from the stresses of work.
I haven’t figured out how to post pictures yet but when I do I’d love to share my work and exchange ideas.
Happy modeling…and hey it’s raining where I live…the perfect excuse to finish that Panzer!
I read what you suggested from Bgrigg but I can’t get to the image upload part. I enabled the avatar setting but I have no idea who or what an administartor or URL are. Help!!! My images are in a photobucket as suggested but I can’t get them to my profile.
