AMT 1940 Ford. Working feverishly to get this one done. It’s been on my workbench too long and I want to start something new.

That blue looks great on that car. The first picture you posted it looked a bit darker, but it really comes alive now especially with the tan interior.
I already have a detailed build log going on this 1:72 Trumpeter T-34/76, but to summarise this weekends efforts we…
- Constructed and textured a display base
- Structurally repaired a damaged gun mantlet
- Completed assembly (excl undercarriage)
A bit more filling and sanding is required before we can declare preparation complete
We also primed a side project from a galaxy far, far away…

Frozin. The color difference is caused by not using a flash in the 1st photo and using a flash while taking the 2nd photo. The interior did turn out well, thanks for the comment…
The Duck looks fantastic in that red & natural metal finish. I’d say go for the rigging if you feel up for it. Your 1940 Ford also looks great in that blue color. That grill and those big flowing fenders get me every time.

Finished up a couple today-- the Bandai Gundam for a group build…
And the Olifant is near 100%…just some touch ups and track fixes…
The Ukrainian T-84 has weathering started…
And the H39 is ready for decals…

Finished (almost) some X-47B aircraft earlier today, and then finished (almost) some F/A-18F aircraft tonight for an aircraft carrier project I’m working on. I say “almost” because I’m going to wait until ALL aircraft for my carrier are done being built and painted, THEN work on decaling them all at once.
My apologies if there’s any errors on the aircraft as I have bad eyesight.

WhatIfRebel, you’ve been very busy this weekend. Your drones and Hornets along with your F-35s all look terrific. Your carrier will definitely be well equipped.
@MR_TOM_SCHRY
And I still have plenty more to go yet.
F/A-18E’s, EA-18G’s, SH-60’s, E-2C’s, V-22’s
And after all the aircraft have been completely done, then I have to do all the carrier deck vehicles.
Fun, fun, fun.
Started a new 1:1 scale project.
700 square feet of tile removed
2000 pounds of new flooring brought in
One day of work done
Five more days to get it finished
Probably won’t have much bench time

“Honey To Do Lists” are the biggest detriment to our hobby/bench time. Good Luck Frozin!

Yeah WhatIfRebel, lots more to do but it’ll be well worth it when your build is completed. Model On!!!
I need to clear my bench from the last build & get ready for the next.
But what…?
I’ll let you all know soon.
Well one week later 1:1 scale floor is done.
Got a bit of paint time on the scratch built Stuka interior before family got home.

Still working on building and painting 1/350 scale aircraft for my future aircraft carrier project…or at least trying to. Kinda hard when I haven’t felt like doing much as I’ve been sick with a cold for the last 8 days.

That interior is looking very good. What kit and scale is that Ju-87?
@MR_TOM_SCHRY
MPC 1/72. Somehow it’s related to an older Airfix kit.
Worked on some Ukrainian tanker figures for my T-64…used the new ICM insignia decals for their uniforms…

Those Ukrainian figures look very good. Nice job on painting their uniforms.
