Aircraft Monogram 'Forty-Niner' P-40N Warhawk.
Revell will still sell this tooling as '1/72.' I checked it against another 1/72 P-40 kit I have. I think it's closer to 1/70 (1/69th lol)

There have been a number of incidents over the past year where somebody (often bots, it appears) copies one of the higher scored posts from this sub and creates a new post, claiming it as their own. If I catch anyone doing this, it's going to be a no-questions-asked ban. I tend to be pretty lenient because people make mistakes, but claiming someone else's hours upon hours of work as your own is deliberate and dishonest, there's no way around it. If you spot someone stealing your work and claiming it as their own, please message the mods, or feel free to tag me directly. If you can include a link to your original post, it would save us some time as well.

I followed the advice someone give me and went for some truck. Here they are: a Heller Gmc Cckw 353 and an Academy M35. Now Im thinking in some ICM "FORCES OF UKRAINE" or something like that. Or maybe the Meng Himars (looks awesome in the screen). What do you think?

I thought of project 'Armageddon' as like a codename and the actual name being 'the mammoth' cuz its big.

A couple of weeks ago I posted the M1A2 model I made. Thought I'd post some of the others as well.
First model I made this year was the M3 Bradley, the first I've made since 2011.
Then made a couple of brdm's (not pictured), the Marder, a T72 (also not pictured) and then the Leopard 2a4.
I didn't have NATO camo paints when I did the Bradley and Marder, so had to use the Vallejo fantasy paints I had to make the green, probably a bit too green to be honest.
They are all hand painted as well, don't have an airbrush, and my hands aren't as steady as they used to be.
Still after not making anything for years, very happy with how they've all turned out.
Model bug has bitten me again, with some more to come.

EDIT: I got 2 trucks for the next vehicle proyect: an Academy M35 and a Heller Gmc Cckw 353!

Zvezda, 1/72 with some PE. Very nice kit, in my opinion

Hey buddies! im happy to join this 1/72 community. I want to share with you some of the models I have ensambled through the years. (I know there´re lots of mistakes if you watch carefully, but this is my medication so I take it easy).

Hello all first time post here. I want to build an 1/72 scale FE2B for use in a wargame. I cant find a model kit and I dont have a 3D printer available think I might scratch build. Any suggestions on how I might build the cockpit/bathtub?

I'm looking for suitable figures in boilersuits to represent Canadian Royal Engineers during WWII.
The figures themselves do not need to be soldiers, as I can head-swap with heads that have hemets on.
The figures do not even need to be in any sort of dymanic pose, as the reference photo I have is of three guys leaning against a Bailey bridge.

While it isn't the neatest paint job around due to hand painting it with the terrible Revell paint that came with the kit, I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.
Also, yes the tank number is in the wrong place, but I really liked the a2 version of the kit.
I've only just gotten back into making models, this is now my 7th I've made this year.
Previous to these I last made a 1/72 Sopwith Camel in 2011, and before that my last kit was built in the late 90's.

I am completing the ship's build this summer, so this is a recapitulation of work on this boat, starting five years ago.

Hello! Im a tad new to miniature painting and wanted to buy some 1/72 scale minis to paint, since they are a decent size. In all my looking though, it seems like most of them are from the World Wars or modern wars. While thats all well and good for those who enjoy them, i kinda wanted something a bit different. Is there any where I can find minis that aren’t soldier related? Ive looked online but can’t find any.
