Tortoise A39 British Heavy Assault Tank Meng Model 1/35

It is a Tortoise heavy assault tank of MENG. It took a long time to assemble the footwear of the chassis like a heavy tank. It was the end of the war and they had no chance to play an active role before they were sent to the front. I heard that only 6 were produced.

20mm Flakvierling Sd.Kfz7/1 German 8 ton Half-Track Tamiya 1/35

It is Tamiya's 8-ton half-track 20 mm 4-barreled anti-aircraft gun. It comes with a lot of winter figurines, so I wonder if there are many people who have winter camouflage in their vehicles. When I changed the face of the figure to resin, it became easier to paint.

This is Tamiya's Pink Panther. a vehicle used by the British Special Air Service. British Command Force S.A.S. specification. The pink color blends into the desert unexpectedly, which seems to have a camouflage effect.

M923A1 Big Foot U.S. Army Military Truck Italeri 1/35

The Italeri military truck M923A1 is built. This time, the modern track seems to have a lot of volumes. I changed tires and packed a lot of things like drums, miscellaneous bags, and a combat ration.

M4A2 Sherman USMC Medium Tank Dragon 1/35

It seems to be said that the shape of the Dragon Sherman Tank is not very accurate. Or rather, each manufacturer except Tasca was not so good. I want to make Tasca of stock as soon as possible, but I thought it would be pitiful if the Dragon was not completed. It looks gorgeous with multi-material.

Tiger-I Panzerkampfwagen VI Ausf.E Early Type Italeri 1/35

It is an Italeri kit Tiger I. It is quite difficult to express such slight drooping in a partially connected track. I had a hard time fixing the gun barrel. German gray Tiger-I goes well with early models.

BMP-1 Russian Infantry Fighting Vehicle Trumpeter 1/35

The Russian infantry fighting vehicle BMP-1. Trumpeter kit. I wonder if these are rather plain and not very popular. I wrote "Soviet Army" and "Russian Army", but is this nationality mark Czech Army? I'm sorry I'm not too familiar with it. Trumpeter kits always have little to say about marking.

Type2 Ho-I Imperial Japanese Army Tank Destroyer Finemolds 1/35

It is a Finemolds Type2 Ho-I tank. I used an Imperial Army Type 97 movable track by Vision Models. I bought it again because the current kit has been changed to a partially connected track. The body is bigger than other tanks of the Imperial Army.

Jagdpanzer IV/70(V) Lang German Tank Destroyer Gunze Creos 1/35

Gunze Creos Lang IV Destroyer Tank 70 (V). This marking is the 116th Armored Division in Ruhr region Germany in 1945. The number might be somewhat different. The predecessor of the 116 division is known as the 16th Motorized Infantry Division "Hound (Windhund) division", advanced to the Astrakhan in the Soviet Union, which is a force that had invaded the most eastward.

SU-85 Soviet Tank Destroyer Tamiya 1/35

This is Tamiya SU-85. The tank body is the same as that of the T-34, so I was surprised that the belt-type caterpillar from the stock AFV club was very nice. It's like a single truck. I wonder if the old kit came back to life. Thanks to the AFV Club parts.

Tunguska 2S6M Russian Anti-Aircraft Tank Panda Hobby 1/35

It is the Tunguska anti-air self-propelled gun of Panda Hobby. It was a kit that was quite difficult to assemble. The parts are fine, and there are parts that don't fit well. It's OK once it forms. It is the mark of the Guard.

Elefant German Heavy Tank Destroyer Tamiya 1/35

I made a Tamiya Elephant. The partially connected track is excellent. Zimmerit coating is done with epoxy putty and rollers. This vehicle marking is No.232, 2nd Company, 653rd Heavy Anti-Tank Battalion, Eastern Front, Summer 1944.

German Howitzer 15cm sFH18 with Limber Dragon 1/35

Dragon 15 cm German heavy howitzer kit. The confusion in this manual was the strongest among the Dragon Kit so far. The parts themselves are luxurious because this kit includes a metal gun barrel. There are various accessories, and if you paint them and put them together, you can make an atmosphere.

Sd.Kfz.223 German Reconnaissance Car Tamiya 1/35

I wonder if Sd. Kfz. 223 is a renewal of the old kit of Tamiya or something. There was an etched part in it. The vehicle equipment and figures were of the same quality as before. It's Afrika Korps the 15th Armored Division, the motorcycle battalion.

BT-7 Soviet Light Tank Tamiya 1/35

It is Tamiya's BT-7. I tried to express the peeling and rust of the paint by the hair spray technique. It might be too dirty for a single display. This tank is in Leningrad in 1943. This kit also comes with a decal of figures, so it's great.
