Done for October

This is my first build in about 12 years. I decided to add a few realistic touches to it.

I shaved the molded battery cables and I’ve added 1 positive going to a relay terminal I built from scrap. I’ll add another positive from the relay to the ignition as well as a negative to a ground point on the block.

I wanted to add spark plug wires. The smallest bit I had was 1/16, which, as you can see from the wires, is pretty massive. I had a very hard time getting anything to adhere to the molded distributor, so I took a drill bit and drilled it out to better accommodate my oversized spark plug wires and hot glued them into the distributor. Then I popped each wire into a whole. It would have been cool to get the proper firing order, but I made that impossible.

The interior is pretty standard for a typical model kit. The only thing I did to it was add carpet. I found a thin piece of dark gray heather fabric and cut it out and glued them to the floorboards. I thought I snapped a picture, but I guess I didn’t.

I’ll probably have this completed by the weekend.

Interior is complete

My best friend recently bought her dream car, a 1988 Suzuki Jimny. I, of course, immediately bought a miniature thinking I would paint it to match. But I was so excited I didn't read what i was buying and instead bought a model kit! Now I have a 1:24 hobby kit and no idea how to put it together. I'm not really looking for new hobbies and wonder if there's somebody in the area who could put it together for me. I would pay you for your time. Please comment or DM me if you're in Austin, TX and interested in building a Jimny!

Well, it's finally time to share my review of the 1/35 Neverland Hobby Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen Wolf SSA.

I have to say, this kit really impressed me. First of all, congratulations to the team for choosing a subject that's different from the usual. We've already seen countless Panthers, Tigers, and Shermans. They may sell well, but the market is already saturated.

As for the kit itself, it's an easy 10/10. The engineering is excellent, making it a straightforward and enjoyable out-of-the-box build. It's also a perfect vehicle to include in a modern military or even a post-apocalyptic diorama. Outstanding work from the manufacturer!

And a huge thanks to the team for sending this kit over and letting me have some fun with it. I really enjoyed building it, and I'm happy to finally share my thoughts with you guys. If you want to take a closer look at the kit, make sure to check out their website:

Star Trek 2:the wrath of khan

German U96 . Weathered and ready to go

My second model, done and dusted, I used a 3D printed diorama, but the gun and crew are the old Tamiya kit. Next time I want to make my own scenery. Thoroughly enjoyed every step of this, even the gas mask container constantly falling off

Additional parts are mostly plastic, sheet and tubing. Plus some revell greeblies and acrylic bits for the legs. The battery sits inside, you can just pull the legs off and swap.
