  1. A #ScaleModel project finally finished: german Pz.Kpfw. IV H #WW2 #panzer #tank in 1:72 with a #ScratchBuilt #diorama.

    The airbrushed camo turned out quite well, I think. So did the mild weathering and the gravel road, though the stones could have been a bit smaller. Making the house ruin look realistic was really difficult; it took me three attempts and I'm still not quite happy with the result.

    All in all quite fun! Looking forward to the next project, probably in a different scale.

  2. Last few angles of the custom built Lightsabre.

    While the few metal parts are left as they are, the plastic pieces were painted in various metallic finishes to match the feel of a typical lightsabre.

  3. All round views of my custom made laser-sword.

    The build included a metal shower pole, part of a clip-on clothes hanger, a bobbin, a drinks bottle cap, a plastic test tube, and part of a vacuum cleaner's wheel.

  4. A #structure I've been working on for about a week for my 2-in-1 HO scale model railway layout. It is a covered 'over the track' conveyor for crushed stone, and a small #building at the end which houses a chute which is used to load railway hopper cars.

    The model is made from #balsa , corrugated #cardboard painted to look like corrugated iron, match stick like wood pieces, and printed industrial door.
