Type97 Chi-Ha Imperial Japanese Army Medium Tank Finemolds 1/35

These days, Finemolds Chi-Ha is still a belt-type track. The slack expression was difficult, but it worked out. The marking of this tank is the 9th tank regiment 5th company in Saipan Is. 1944. Is the weathering too much...

Marder III Ausf H German Tank Destroyer Tristar 1/35

Tristar's Mader III anti-tank self-propelled gun. I was surprised that the inside of the tank was reproduced in detail. Paint and marking are the 29th PzGr-Div., Italy, Summer 1944 on the instruction manual.

Raiden [Jack] Type21 Mitsubishi J2M3 Japanese Navy Interceptor Hasegawa 1/32

It is a 1/32 scale Hasegawa Raiden. I was most surprised that it came with a good figure. Various parts are big. The decal in the cockpit was unexpectedly good.

German Anti-Aircraft Gun 8.8cm FLAK18 AFV Club 1/35

I matched the Dragon Artillery Figure to the 8.8 cm German Artillery of the AFV Club. I also tried to paint the anti-aircraft gun with winter camouflage to match the figure's winter equipment. It looks like white was painted on top of gray and partially peeled off.

U.S. Army WWII Infantry at Remagen 1945 Dragon 1/35

Dragon US Infantry Figure. It is a figure themed on a battle near the Remagen Iron Bridge in 1945, and it contains 6 figures, which is rare for a dragon kit. The medic and the soldier in the coat are outstanding and good!

Panzerkampfwagen III Ausf H German Medium Tank Dragon 1/35

It is the Dragon Smart Kit, the Panzerkampfwagen III of the DAK. The marking is the 15th armor division, which had severe battle experience with the 21st armor division under the control of General Rommel in North Africa. Palm tree marking is a nice taste.

U.S. Army 105mm Howitzer M2A1 AFV Club 1/35

It's a plastic model of a US military howitzer from the AFV Club. It is made luxuriously with a metal gun barrel. There are some etched parts, but the AFV club kit has small plastic parts and high accuracy. As expected, it is a manufacturer with a reputation for cannon kits.

T34/85 Mod.1944 Soviet Medium Tank Dragon 1/35

It's Dragon's T-34/85. It was a premium edition, so it took a long time to assemble because there were more parts for a Soviet tank. The one before painting is cooler. I made a tank soldier figure of Tristar together.

M51 Super Sherman Israeli Main Battle Tank Tamiya 1/35

It is Tamiya's Super Sherman M51. By converting US Sherman tanks in their own country and replacing them with 105mm tank guns, they were able to compete with the T-54/55 and JS3 of the Arab countries. The marking is the time of the Yom Kippur War.
