#172scale — Public Fediverse posts

Some more valiant knights have arrived for my 1:72 armies.

I still find it funny they claim these figures are "Wargames Approved".

Approved by who?!

I do really like Italeri stuff though, they are pretty cheap but their figures are detailed and well defined.

The only issue is that they are awkwardly situated between 28mm and 15mm and so you are dependent on other 1:72 manufacturers.

(Some of which are Ukrainian and Russian, so with their own problems)

#wargames #172scale

I am fascinated by this tagline.

I am not sure what it wants to tell me, but I am fascinated.

#tanktuesday A Finnish post war Pz. IV unit with a smuggled in Pz. III which the Finns never had. These are all Italeri and Tamiya kits. #135scale #172scale #afvmodel #tankmodel #tankmodelling #scalemodel #plasticmodels #scalemodelling #wargames #wargaming #hobby #miniatures #shipmodel #shipmodelling #H0gauge

Talked with the proprietor of the last remaining model/wargame shop in Bayreuth (itself a surreal experience as that place is absolutely packed to the rood with stuff) and found out that somehow nobody does medieval model stuff in 1/72 anymore, only WWII.

Also that he has been waiting for a delivery from Caesar Miniatures for four years now and he thinks they might not even exist anymore.

Which would be sad, but not all that surprising.

In the case you grew up with these 1:32 Airfix toy soldiers as I did you should note more changes in appearance ... #132scale #54mm #135scale #172scale #afvmodel #tankmodel #tankmodelling #scalemodel #plasticmodels #scalemodelling #wargames #wargaming #hobby #miniatures #shipmodel #shipmodelling #H0gauge #toysoldiers #armymen

I have recorder an unboxing of a terrific microscale model (1:72) of our local, polish rescue helicopter that operates in our highest Tatra Mountains. Attaching a photo, which presents how it looks in reality.

Will be working on this model soon - it's rather an advanced one, with additional, photo-etched parts.

More figures of my 1/32 Italeri Soviet Winter Infantry set, painted as Finns. #135scale #172scale #afvmodel #tankmodel #tankmodelling #scalemodel #plasticmodels #scalemodelling #wargames #wargaming #hobby #miniatures #shipmodel #shipmodelling #H0gauge

It's #tanktuesday again! This time with my 1/35 Italeri SU-100 in 1973 Syrian colours. #135scale #172scale #afvmodel #tankmodel #tankmodelling #scalemodel #plasticmodels #scalemodelling #wargames #wargaming #hobby #miniatures #shipmodel #shipmodelling #H0gauge

Another scene with different 1/35 kits and miniatures. This time a 3,7 cm Flak 43 and a Demag 1t. #135scale #172scale #afvmodel #tankmodel #tankmodelling #scalemodel #plasticmodels #scalemodelling #wargames #wargaming #hobby #miniatures #shipmodel #shipmodelling #H0gauge

And another pic of my 1/35 GAZ crane lorry. #135scale #172scale #afvmodel #tankmodel #tankmodelling #scalemodel #plasticmodels #scalemodelling #wargames #wargaming #hobby #miniatures #shipmodel #shipmodelling #H0gauge

I had a lot of fun converting this old 1/35 Tamiya Churchill tank into a captured German tank equipped with a German 7,5 cm cannon. #135scale #172scale #afvmodel #tankmodel #tankmodelling #scalemodel #plasticmodels #scalemodelling #wargames #wargaming #hobby #miniatures #shipmodel #shipmodelling #H0gauge

And this is a full view of the 1/35 Italeri Commando Jeep from my previous toot. #135scale #172scale #afvmodel #tankmodel #tankmodelling #scalemodel #plasticmodels #scalemodelling #wargames #wargaming #hobby #miniatures #shipmodel #shipmodelling #H0gauge

For #tanktuesday I'm tooting today about my 1/35 Tamiya Centurion up gunned with a 105 mm cannon and some other small alterations of detail. This built kit was given to me by a friend in a very sorry state and I invested some time into fixing and converting it to an IDF tank. #135scale #172scale #afvmodel #tankmodel #tankmodelling #scalemodel #plasticmodels #scalemodelling #wargames #wargaming #hobby #miniatures #shipmodel #shipmodelling #H0gauge

Have I shown to you my Tiger II Schwere Panzerabteilung yet? Although these are 1/72 ready made models from Japan, maybe of Fujimi origin or similar. I guess in WWII such a unit would have been a considerable force to deal with. #172scale #afvmodel #tankmodel #tankmodelling #scalemodel #plasticmodels #scalemodelling #wargames #wargaming #hobby #miniatures #shipmodel #shipmodelling #H0gauge
