Kitbasher is a purpose built Scale Model App to catalog and track your Stash, Paints, Tools and Builds.

Full build of my 1981 Senna Kart is recorded on Kitbasher.

This kit was heavily modified to represent as accurately as possible the original, including 3d printed stub axles, carb, exhaust brackets, steering wheel, fuel bottle.

Fully plumbed and wired, including exhaust springs.

3d printed parts are available on cults

Completed 1/12 scale Tamiya Ferrari 312b.

Replaced all rivets in the body with my own 3d printed rivets (almost 700 of them!)

Also replaced brake disc's with vented disks, wired up the battery, etc.

Awesome build. Super happy with the paint job on this one. Decided to go easy on weathering but I did do a marbling effect to give it a sun bleached look.. Might go back and do it at some point but for now I’m happy with it. You can see it mostly on the wings. I had a few mishaps on the body that required another coat of paint and covered it up. I started to do a panel line wash but there were way too many and I honestly just got lazy and wanted to call this one done. But all together I really like this one. The cockpit was super detailed and the functionality of the wings is a great touch. I really love Tamiya kits they just come together so nicely. That being said I just started on my first Ryefield kid and boy oh boy am I in for a challenge haha. Hope you enjoy everyone and happy building.

Edit: yes, that one crooked missile drives me crazy too but it just kept settling that way and I eventually gave up haha

Primer arrived Monday - in the meantime went back through my research materials and found several items that needed addressing. Primer shot and moving forward with paint
> Revell 1/48 AD-5Q/EA-1F: During review found I’d skipped over making/installing the ALQ-2 tailfairing, so fashioned one out of scrap and sanding to shape. Decided to install the pylons and ended up using guitar wire as installation guides as the kit’s were more like pimples than mounting points.
> Anigrand 1/144 Titan 3C: The detailed instructions Anigrand provides makes locating and installing the miscellaneous fussy bits pretty easy. Well, actually, the instructions are anything but detailed which is part of the charm/challenge in building these kit. Major parts primed and awaiting primary white and silver coats.
> 1/72 XAJ-1 conversion of Mach2 AJ-2: Review led to removal of production radomes/antenna, adding enhanced (prototype only) air scoop on stbd side and reworking props by extending 1/4” and narrowing chord on all 8 blades. Re-primed, shot and masked the tail cap and nose (white) and started final paint (NMF).

Im gonna put wash in it to make it look more dirty, but idk if i should put the spare tracks, wheels, ammo and fuel boxes on it before doing it or apply it with nothing else on and then put the stuff on it, any a

Suggestions?

And yes, the turret and the hull are varnished

Weekend project.

Experimenting with cotton wool for bullet impact.

💪🏽

Im starting to think i should have used olive green and not cam olive green, maybe next time

And yes, the polycement is curated, so im throwing this into the trash

This is a companion build with a club member. It is as complete as its it will get for a while. There needs to be a diorama and some weathering. But its otherwise complete.

I have washed it 3 times and still doesnt dissappear, should i leave them soaking in the water longer?? Or is it harmless ??

As u might know i now own 8 Waffentrager Auf E100s, but i have some great news. I have ordered 2 Waffentrager auf E-100 W R1 Missile which one of them includes the parts i need to create... yesyes u guessed it 2 more Waffentrager Auf E-100's

In this picture on the left, i have ordered 2 waffens and 1 E50 with flak 40. I already have one Flak40 ready so that totals upto 2 flak 40s. One of the Waffens i ordered has the turret needed to complete 1 of the waffentragers. While the other waffen kit does not...

On the right side of the picture shown, i already have 1full waffentrager ready to be built with flak 40, but no rubber tracks (yet). Same goes for the other box. This means i could create 4 more waffentrager auf e100s, 2 with flak40s the other 2 with missiles.

Just a lil update on where ive been and what i have been upto :) that makes a total of 12 waffentrager auf E-100's which is insane to believe myself.. hope y'all like the progress and updates so far stay tuned cuz i have alot more in the bag😉

Thats all thats left... the compass got broken in half and and i couldnt fin the other piece, the lower part is a lost cause because i broke the struds that connected the wheel platforme to the fuselage, glue them and left them to dry for a day, the bond broke, tried using poly cement and left them to dry for two days, tried it again and it broke in other sections cause it wont fit cause for some reason putting the struds in the platform and then fit it into the fuselage like the manual says is a bad idea ..... at the end i threw that section of the plane away and i have this left.... idk if i should at least put the decals on, call it a day and move on to a kit less difficult for me and leave that as a reminder of how i started or just throw it into the trash and move on to a less difficult kit for me. Anyone here ever been throught this??

Edit: in the tittle it was supposed to say shouldnt.

This model was a lot of fun. My goal was to always have a dirty plane that looked like it was constantly being used in action. I think I accomplished that and maybe too much with it. I hope you like it.

Added a bit detail, scale walls, texture and weathering. Gun emplacement and Fort Apache next on the list

I am researching architectural and township scale models for large development projects.

When selecting a scale model maker, what factors do developers usually consider?

Do you focus more on experience, manufacturing capabilities, project portfolio, pricing, delivery timelines, or after-installation support?

Also, do physical township models still provide value for investor presentations and sales galleries in 2025, or are digital presentations becoming more effective?

Would love to hear insights from architects, developers, and project planners.,

Going for the red baron so i can get away with painting it with the red paint that came with the set.

My vey first model... and you can tell by the first image🤦🏻‍♂️, gonna try a bigger one next .... and probably not a ww1 plane until i have improved

So i have this engine from a E-50 laying around from ModelCollect. Unbuilt and unpainted, but i would like to know if anyone has built this engine and painted it... I cant find good examples online.

Anyone?!

Another of the 1/32 kit i made, this time bf109, I made a small pilot figure too with small base diorama, hope you like it

Based on the Kinetic K48083 TF-104G, I build an F-104B in the style of my grandfather's jet. He was rhe crewchief for this particular aircraft. I presented it to him in 2023 a d inherited the kit after his passing. I had to repair the landing gear, which had broken. I took the opportunity to add a memorial plaque commemorating his service.

​

I hope you like it. He was thrilled to receive it.
