M2A2 ODS Bradley U.S. Army Infantry Fighting Vehicle Tamiya 1/35

It's Tamiya's M2A2 ODS Bradley infantry fighting vehicle. I didn't want to wear a belt type of track, but this vehicle has a lot of hidden parts, so I think I don't have to be so concerned about it.

Zero Fighter A6M5 Model52 Imperial Japanese Navy Tamiya 1/48

I think it's Tamiya's new Zero fighter. I was surprised that there were 4 pilot figures standing. This paint might be stronger. Maybe this paint is more enthusiastic. This time, I built the Zero in the Battle of the Philippine Sea, June 19, 1944. Carrier Junyo, Lead ship of Carrier Div. 2, 652nd Fighter Group.

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.

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.

F-14A Black Tomcat U.S. Navy Carrier-Based Fighter Revell 1/144

I think Revell's newer 1/144 F-14A kit is very good. Although it is a mini scale, it is very delicate and the decal is also fine. This is "Vandy One", Air Test and Evaluation Squadron VX-4, NAS Pt Mugu, California, USA, 1991.

Dassault Mirage IIIc French Air Force Fighter Eduard 1/48

I built Eduard Mirage IIIc. The marking is the 10th Airwing 2nd Fighter Squadron "Seine" in April 1976, it's the beautiful red line accent on the metal plates. In this kit, the mold of the parts is sharp and the rear end of the main wing is quite thin and well made. I was surprised to see a standing pilot figure.
