I just saw this on the web and I thought what a great scratch build to work on, this would be my first. Behold a Syrian rebel DIY tank! Wow, it's a beauty. Totally anti-personal, wouldn't survive a tank or AT round. I'm going to think about what materials to buy and what type of vehicle to...

I just saw this on YouTube, coming in summer 2013. Trailer - World War Z TRAILER (2013) - Brad Pitt Movie HD

Hey addicts,I will be working on a Redtail version of an F-16. The kit is by Academy at 1/48. This is a lot of first for me. I'll be going retro with this kit. It's going to have that recognizable paint scheme and flashy exposed metal body. Working on Eduard PE details, never worked on them...

I haven't seen Boardwalk Empire yet, like to know everyone's opinion. Is it worth watching?

I bought this M163 Vulcan 1/35 at my local hobby store. Cost 22.00 with water damage all over the box. What I really wanted was the M-ATV which cost 67.00! Maybe next time. The good news is he didn't charge me tax. It's a cool kit, still intact and the decals survived. Thought I take a break...

Hey Addicts! Working on a Humvee circa Operation Iraqi Freedom. It's by Hobby Craft, but I think the kit came from an existing manufacturer. I can't tell who made, no copyright markings. Cuz the last kit I got from Hobby Craft was that Trumpeter Fedayeen technical and quality of the kit was...

Zup addicts! I just built and painted a LVTP in winter camo. What I wanted to do is update it with a new turret and dress it up in desert scheme. I don't have the patience to build a LVTP turret and to buy one cost $20.00 on ebay. Instead I used the money to buy a cyber-hobby 1/35 Israeli super...

This is my first contest I entered and I viewed all the entries and everyone did a good job. Lots of creative, well painted, and nicely built models. Hard for me to vote... What stands out for me are the incredible paint jobs everyone did. That's my 2 cents.

I got a riddle for you addicts, How do you take a screen shot (size: 1280x641) of AAV drawing like the one below and print them out at 1/35 scale? I'm going the scratch build the current AAV-7 turret for a LVTP-7 build.

Is the a tool to measure scale? I have a 1/35 Tamiya AAV, old kit with the 50 cal. AA gun. I'm proposing to scratch build a new turret that's being currently used by the USMC instead of buying one that cost 20 American. I want to get accurate proportions, I don't want the turret to look way too...

Does anyone know where I can find a turret update for a LVTP A1 by Tamiya? I found one on ebay but it cost twenty American dollars. Thanks for viewing.

Is there a way to fix raised panel lines after you sand them off?

;DI'm throwing my hat in for my first contest. I be building the F-8 Crusader 1/48 by Revell/Monogram. It's a beautiful aircraft from the Vietnam war era. I'll be using it's naval markings. I had to use the camera from my cell, cuz my point and shoot broke. Good luck to you all!

Can any scale model addicts recommend what kind of gloss and flat coats I should use that are enamel paint friendly? Thanx for viewing!

I just found out about this movie, coming out in December 2011. The story is about a Korean marathoner during Japan's colonization of Korea who becomes an Imperial soldier to avoid execution, who becomes a Soviet soldier later when he is captured by the Soviets to avoid execution again, who...

Hi everyone. This is my first vehicle build. The first two were a MiG-15 and F-86. The kit is from Hobby Craft, but molded by Trumpeter, 1/35 scale. It's inspired from Saddam's Fedayeen during Operation Iraqi Freedom. Supposedly loyal to Saddam. After the build the paint scheme will be simple...

This bundle comes with one 1/72 scale Mi-24 gunship and two soviet made trucks I'm selling. Details are posted on ebay. Check link below. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300587751652

I did the most nooby thing :( and that is touch my painted model and left a thumb print and it's metallic painted surface. So far I softly sand away the prints with a 1000 grit , but not a nice finish. Could I polish it to a nice shine? What compound should I use? The paint is Testor's enamel...

I'm working on the "antagonist" of the MIG, the F-86 by Heller. I don't know the year it was made and I got for ten bucks! 53 parts altogether, no pilot. :( Using Testor's enamel, started using a spray can of silver. Later, I used an airbrush by Aztek. Part of it's camo airbrush kit. Bottom...

Is there another way to strip enamel paint from plastic models kits besides using thinner? Cuz I have a blackhawk chopper with paint I don't like and crappy paint job at that too.
