The second of my Christmas projects is this machine. The mouthful name of this tank basically means that it is small command tank based on the Panzer I chassis. The kit is […]
Kleine Panzerbefehlswagen I – Part 1: Construction
M1A1 AIM Abrams – Part 11: Finale
As is the case with many of my other models, Abrams was sitting on my desk for quite a while, so I have finally decided to finish it off for the Ajax […]
Track trick
I am rather lazy modeller, so when it comes to tank tracks I prefer the ones which take least effort to assemble while providing good level of detail and, if relevant, correct […]
M48A3 coming from Dragon
Another surprising announcement hit modelers only days ago – Dragon has announced release of M48A3. I don’t think there would be a modeller expecting this as in the past years Dragon has focused […]
M1A1 AIM Abrams – Part 10: Streaking & grime; stowage

M1A1 AIM Abrams – Part 5: Running gear
During the break while I am waiting for the decals for Pershing to arrive I went back to other kits sitting on my shelf to get them bit closer to the finish. […]
Flying T-34/76
This is another contribution to the gallery of my finished models. Again, I have built the model few years ago, so I can’t really go into any details regarding the build or […]
Late for Christmas
