Skoda Pz. Kpfw. 35 (T) German Light Tank CMK 1/35

It is a Skoda 35(t) light tank made by CMK. It is quite an old kit, but I managed to complete it. It is a tank developed in Czechoslovakia. This time marking of the 11th tank regiment of the 1st light armored division used by the German Army after Czechoslovakia be annexed.

German Panzer Crew Set Tristar 1/35

Tristar's German Waffen SS tank crew set. Unfortunately, it may be out of production. They are a German tank crew wearing a beret in the early days. These figures can be used in early tanks and armored vehicles from I to IV, but these kinds of figures haven't been released so often.

M4A1 Sherman 75Mm Early Version Dragon 1/35

Dragon's M4A1 Sherman. Judging from the package, it seems to be an old kit. It is quite rare for a U.S. tank to have a combination track included in its kit. The marking of this tank is the 1st co., 2nd battalion, 67th Armored Regiment, 2nd Armored Division in Sicily, July 1943.

German Volkssturm Berlin 1945 Dragon 1/35

Dragon German Volkssturm kit. This is a figure with a slightly sad look. I made my own firearm strap with a layer of masking tape and made a metal part of the strap by using thin copper wire.

FIGURE GERMANY

U.S. Machine-Gunners M1917A1 Browning Heavy Machine-Gun Master Box 1/35

It is a set of a Master Box Browning heavy machine gun and two soldiers. I changed it to resin head, but I thought the original one was enough as well. I think it was released relatively early among Masterbox kits.

U.Ｓ. Army Cargo Truck 2.5 ton 6 X 6 Italeri 1/35

I built Italeri 2.5 ton cargo truck. I wanted to add more chipping because it is a single-color paint. I used the hairspray technique for the first time in a while. Maybe I did too much weathering.

U.S. Army WWII Tank Crew Set Alpine 1/35

I built Alpine American tank crew figures. Of course, I would like to paint the face well, if I can describe the ranking badge and the tips of the fingers in detail, the precision will increase. I like resin figures because the mold is fine.

Destroyer Hatsuharu 1941 Imperial Japanese Navy Aoshima 1/700

It is the Aoshima destroyer Hatsuharu. I bought a kit with etched parts. I think it is just the right amount of etched parts for beginners. I like this kind of detailed work, but how old can I do that?

BATTLESHIP JAPAN

MiG-23MF Flogger-B Czech Air Force Fighter Trumpeter 1/48

It is a Trumpeter MiG-23 Flogger. The contrast between red and black is impressive. I think it is the marking of the 1994 air show. Since it was a flight in an air show, I didn't load any weapon.

Draken S35E Swedish Air Force Recon Plane Hasegawa 1/48

This is a Hasegawa’s Draken. Marking of Draken, Swedish Air Force, F11(11-02), 1965. It is a natural metal version and silver coating is quite difficult. It's a reconnaissance plane, so it doesn't have military gear, but there are camera pods everywhere.

AIRCRAFT OTHERS

MiG-21MF Polish Air Force Academy 1/48

It's the Academy's MiG-21 of the Polish Air Force. This time, I used too much softener to make a large marlin decal look terrible. I think the marking itself is a special marking of the 3rd tactical flight team of the Polish Air Force.

AIRCRAFT OTHERS

German Medical Troops Dragon 1/35

Dragon's German Army medical soldier figure set. The buckle and epaulets of the belt use a Tamiya German army decal set. Basically, medical soldiers did not carry weapons, but they carried handguns on the Eastern Front in the German-Soviet war. Is it because the war between Germany and the Soviet Union tended not to comply with the war regulations?

FIGURE GERMANY

ZSU-23-4V1 Shilka Czechoslovakian Anti-Aircraft Gun Dragon 1/35

It's a Dragon Silka self-propelled antiaircraft gun. It was old and I was prepared to be difficult to assemble, but it was completed without any trouble. The decal has deteriorated, but I don't care much about the AFV plastic models.

MiG-15Bis Fagot-B Trumpeter 1/48

It is MiG-15 of the Trumpeter. It is a fighter plane dispatched by the Chinese army to support North Korea in the Korean War as marked in 1953. It was hard to assemble. Tamiya seems to be easier to complete.
