Is somewhere around 1950 and RAF is testing Meteor replacement.  Sure is keen how B-47 main landing gear is configured, lets try that on this one.

JOSEDAVINCI  has everything from intro figure painting to very advanced techniques. I don't do gaming miniatures, but his techniques work on regular figures. The videos are in Spanish but with excellent English subtitles.

It just occurred to me the TS-90 turret of the Panhard ERC-90 might be a good fit as well

Way back in this thread I have a mockup with a Bradley turret and a  LAV-150 Commando turret and Cockerill 90mm gun, so that may work.

Anybody know about the diesel engine installation on IIRC the Danish rebuilds? I wondering what the engine deck and rear look like. I’ve wondered if a 1/48th M-60 engine deck would fit.

Scifi and Fantasy / Deep Rock Galactic

For Christmas, my daughter and her boyfriend gave me the board game Deep Rock Galactic.

Link to description: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/348220/deep-rock-galactic-the-board-game

Since I had the airbrush out, I pulled the dwarves and their supporting cast out of the box and primed them along with some other projects.

First, the support for the dwarves:


From Left to Right: M.U.L.E., Resupply Pod, BOSCO, Sentry Gun

The Scout:



The Driller:



The Engineer:



The Gunner:



Their adversaries in these adventures are the Glyphids.  You get 38 of them.  I haven't primed them yet.




I'll either get pretty good at figure painting or give up the hobby altogether.

Are you planning to mount your gun system on the TOW structure?

Jeffry, that is exactly the plan.

I've currently got one in my 'to-do' box along with new tracks (which is packed because I have to move AGAIN) and I'm tossing up doing the following for my 2000AD post WW3 builds:

- M41 w/ M103 105 mm Howitzer from the Spanish M108 SPGs. This will be done up as a direct support SPG for dealing with bunkers and applique armour in Spanish NATO livery.

- M41 w/ scratch-built Thyssen-Henschel 'Tanque Argentino Mediano' turret in West German* livery. Either Bundeswehr or Bundesgrenzschutz. I'm a bit unsure about this because the 105mm L7A3 cannon is four times heavier than the M32A1 76mm gun and I'm not sure if the chassis would stand the firing shock.

- Something else my fevered imagination comes up with.

(*I know, but in this scenario there's still a West Germany)

I have vac-form fuselages for the TF-86, F-86D, and CA-27.  I am tempted to splice together bits from these to do a Sabre Dingo fuselage.  One apporach I was tempted to use is use RTV to clone these, cast copies, and cut and splice those to do a Sabre Dingo fuselage.
