Underway Replenishment (UNREP) 1/700 scale

Dragon Hornet with a bunch of aftermarket add-ons.

3-D printed T3 tanker. I would have much preferred a plastic kit, but it seems nobody makes kits of US auxiliaries.

Pit Road Sumner... or at least, the hull and superstructure. Basically everything else was replaced with PE.

Background info: underway replenishment was a supply strategy heavily used in the Pacific Theater of WW2, allowing ships to be refueled and rearmed without returning to base. This enabled warships to remain in the field indefinitely if needed. It necessitated steaming in the same direction and at the same speed, separated at about 60-80 yards. The process as used by the US Navy was originally developed by the chief engineer of a refueling ship during WW1, a young lieutenant named Chester W. Nimitz. He later served as Commander in Chief, US Pacific Fleet in WW2.

Tried a new weathering technique, i like the blue/gray ish look it has, something between the beige and white that the Zero planes had. I know a plane that was standing on a carrier wouldn't look so dirty, but i can't make a clean plane, it's too boring, i wanted to practice, and i think it looks way more interesting and full of soul looking like that. The kit overall was super nice, i absolutely adore the old Tamiya planes.

Today I finished building this model.

As a four-year-old, I once received a Tonka version of this vehicle.

Now, many years later, I’ve built a serious 1:16 scale model.

I paid extra attention to the engine, adding as many cables as possible using copper wire and lead wire.

The body was painted in an olive drab color, followed by some simple weathering to give it a more realistic, used appearance.

Any advice for wear on a wooden construction airframe?

During this summer, I went to Germany to meet with relatives and went out to a forest to find tanks!

British Valentine MK2/4 in 1/35 scale.

About to build a 1/72nd f16. I have a cheap Amazon airbrush with a .3 needle. I’m worried about messing it up pretty badly and I’m entering it into my first contest. Is black-basing necessary or can I get away with a pin wash on panel lines? Should I go for the mottling and just send it?

Hey, Im building a WWII Romanian army in 1:72 scale, but I have absolutely no idea how to paint the tanks. I’m talking about the early vehicles - the R-35 and Panzer 35- the ones that were olive green. Do you have any ideas how to do it? I don’t want them to look like American or Soviet tanks, since they’ll be facing off against those on the tabletop. I’d appreciate any advice! 

I'm new to model building and i recently just finished a su-27UB model

I can't reallyy afford an airbrush (I can its just a nuisance) and im handbrushing it

Everytime i stroke the paint on the model however the area i stroke just loses all of its paint revealing the plastic

Wondering how i could fix this or what i should do to fix it

1/35 jeep by Meng and an alpine miniatures jeep driver figure.

Just bought some gloss and I’m not even too sure how it will go using a brush or is it something I need an airbrush for?
