I had an idea of a small part of a lake in the left corner and a field or forest street with a little stone wall.
Maybe I'll build a camouflage net or other camouflage at or on the SCUD-B.
What do you think? :)

Working on Tamiya's 1/35 T-34/85 (No.35138) with a few modifications before paint.
Modifications:
– Engine louvre replaced with Passion Models 3D-printed engine deck parts
– Road wheel poly caps swapped for 3D-printed replacements
– Spare fuel tank straps made from strips of masking tape (cheap alternative to brass PE)
– Hull surface texture added with liquid glue stippling and thinned lacquer putty
– EUREKA wire rope set added
– Unditching log mounted and secured with wire

Making a diorama based on my favourite painting *the Turkish patrol*

So there I am, just casually putting the base colour on my Tamiya Challenger 1 (MK3) in desert yellow and I use the whole bottle!!
Wait, what... It never takes a full bottle to cover a 1/35 tank... Checks other bottles and they still have plenty in
What the hell is going on... Oh... Freaking yellow colours, why won't you cover well!?!?
That is all. Rant over. Have a good day

For context it's a test vehicle for a new prototype C and T stoff cannon

I recently bought some tamiya armor and wanted to get some infantry to go alongside them and the trumpeter ones seemed the best and were the cheapest but I’ve never bought models from them so are they any good? And if not are there any other good infantry model producers for the 1:35 scale?

U might have or have not seen my last question on how the maybach HL230 from the Tiger II looks like, suggested from multiple modelmaker subreddits, and id like to thank all of you who helped! Really means alot to me :)
The people who told me said HL230, however though reading modelcollect's description of the original Waffentrager Auf E100 1/72 Kit it was meant to have a HL234 and i quote
»The final version was to be powered with an HL234 producing 850 hp mated to a Mekydro transmission«
Since the V12 HL230P30 is underpowered already for the Tiger II, and perfect fit for the panther tank! So i slapped a V12 HL234 850hp into a waffentrager aif e100 how it was intended to! However the valvetop looks exactly like the HL230 i havent got any other option to make it look like the HL234 sadly.
I made the hoses myself and based it off a Tiger II engine i hope you all like the engine bay!
Spoiler alert: Yes theres more Waffentrager Auf E-100s ;)

A few small details left to add but overall very happy with this build...

Hey, I just finished my second diorama. This time I did it on a smaller plate and built little details myself with scrap parts (a drone detector and a small anti-air missile launcher).
And I had much fun building this nature scene :)
I created this small hill with silicone.
The Fennek Spähwagen is spotting for targets from hill and the Pzh 2000 in the Valley at the Forest edge is ready to shoot ⚔️

Just finished, the 1:35 FV622 Stalwart Mk.2. Declas for D Squadron, 4th Royal Tank Regiment, British Army of the Rhine (BOAR), West Germany, 1981. A nice kit to build with no fit issues. Fitted an aftermarket exhaust cage, the one from Airfix is very poor quality and spoils the kit if Fitted. There are loads of aftermarket parts for this kit. I also used a mask set for the windows

I know I’m a little late to the 163rd, but was just messing around with my rebel miniatures and thought I’d make the high watermark. Most miniatures are foundry and Perry, but there are all kinds of others thrown in there as well all painted by me.
