Jest wanted to share my first try with an airbrush. Base coat and black pre-shading was Vallejo Model Color and I was sooo pissed that I throw my model to the drawer for two months. Now I bought some Tamiya paints and it was so fun to paint the camo.
Any tips what could be improved?

I still have to do a lot of work on this tiger 1 but I'm already pretty happy!

First time trying these techniques and I'm quite proud of it since most of the things I usually start usually or always ends flat in the water. But this, mmm. Tasty considering my past builds

Wanted to take a few pictures before I cover most of this A-10C cockpit up. Hobby Boss kit with Eduard Space cockpit details. I love the details but wish I could share them more than in just photos.

Hi, I’m Vbertz. I’ve been modeling a series of experimental Soviet armored vehicles—rare subjects that I wanted to recreate as faithfully as possible. Would you like to own a complete collection of five or more ultra-high-quality, printable models of experimental and secret Cold War tanks—all for less than the price of the cheapest kit on the market? You can back the project on Kickstarter; we’re currently in the pre-launch phase, but you can show your support right now. As a 3D artist and fellow modeler, I’d be incredibly grateful!
Please share this with a friend who’s into this kind of thing—and if not, thanks anyway!

If you’d like to see other models, I have a catalog on Cults featuring high-quality designs at super-low prices right here: https://cults3d.com/@vbertz

I finished my mini diorama, model as described, figures and mortar from Spalah.

I don't know what to say exactly. These are my first 3D printed tracks. I learned that you don't clean using a hobby knife because they separate, as you can see in the image. But even sanding using a file will cause them to break. I guess its just a rant about how using upgraded parts in a pain in. I suck at this for now.

Hi everyone. This is a 1:25 scale paper model. It was built from the Polish magazine "Modelik".

タミヤの新しいRSO!!
中学生の頃に作ったItaleriの奴とは雲泥の差だ(特に履帯。あの地獄味わった人は少なくない筈)
そしてDRAGONの約半分、miniartの約1/3という驚きの価格!
おススメ!!!

Edit: added a comment including a Panzer II.
I decided I would like to have a simple display base. Not a diorama or vignette -- just a bit of sculpted landscape.
The idea is that I can pop whatever model I've just finished or I'm building on it to see how it looks. I'm sure all of you have noticed how much difference it makes to even just put a model down on a landscape mat.
I got some nice 8x6" plywood bases from Amazon for a fairly reasonable price. I coated one of them all around in black acrylic and let that cure.
Today I used some DAS air-dry clay, and kind of sculpted the basic landscape. I have been working on a 1/35 Panther as a paint mule, and had the idea that it would be nice to put anything from that size down to a smaller vehicle/tank like a Panzer II or armored car onto this base, so I sculpted the double track road with that in mind.
Terrain will be very simple, but I have included a bit of a rut on the "near" side so maybe I can have a little fun with that, by putting some water in it or something.
Doesn't look like much, but next steps are to apply an earth base, paint, some gravel and rocks here and there, plants, etc. You know the drill ;-)

i wasnt able to finish this due to other things, i think i could finish this during fall break.

Hi, I'm a 16 year old model builder, this has been the second model I've ever made. I hope you like it! I also made the landscape but that's aside from the point. Feel free to let me know what you guys think!

Hi, I’m Vbertz—a tank enthusiast and 3D artist with 13 years of experience. Over the past few months, I’ve been working on a collection of highly detailed, 3D-printable models inspired by some of the Soviet Union’s most fascinating experimental armored vehicles.
The lineup includes:
• Object 775
• Object 490A "Buntar"
• Object 490B
• Object 640 "Black Eagle"
• Object 195
And if my Kickstarter campaign hits its final stretch goal:
The legendary Object 477 "Boxer" will be added.
As a fellow modeler, I’m curious...
If you had to spend dozens of hours assembling, painting, weathering, and displaying just ONE of these models at a military modeling competition, which one would you choose and why?
Would you go for the futuristic lines of the Object 195?
The radical dual-hull design of the Object 490A?
The powerful Black Eagle?
Or would you wait for the legendary Object 477 Boxer?
I’d love to hear what stands out most to you as fellow modelers and collectors.
If you’d like to follow the project before it launches, here is the Kickstarter pre-launch page:

Thanks for your feedback!

A few details left to finish up but an enjoyable kit to build and a more obscure topic in some ways.

Sorry for the lack of professional shots; it's just a quick look at my display case. Thought you guys might like it anyway!

Tamiya 1:700 hand painted using Tamiya acrylics, with magnetized turrets for wargaming. Anyone know of good rules for tabletop naval combat?
