Thanks for sharing your work. Needless to say, it is impressive.

very nice work. I would be nice if you could find the space to do a diorama of a small camp. your work and attention to detail are outstanding.

Thanks again. I am not so into big diorama but if I was I still won't have the space to do them.

Thanks guys. Merry Christmas btw. The kids? Don't have any...YET!! But when I do, they'll certainly have to buy a get in 'Card' to tread my path.

Charles,

Just echoing the comments of others, your work is amazing! Are you in this line of work professionally? The level of detail you show in your models is often lacking in other venues such as movies and TV shows, I think you could do well there!

Thanks. I am not in this line of work. I just mimic what I see in pics(lots of them) and add them to the model. I search the net looking for any kind of subject matter that looks interesting and model after what I see.

If I could build models like yourself, I wouldn't have the need to buy the real thing. Truly master workmanship!

 

[CharlesKing]

Thanks for your kind remarks Jason. Now I am trying my luck with 1/24 scale now. I have not given up on 1/35, just want to extend my interest. It's been over 17 months since my last build. So I hope I ave not lost it.

 

[CharlesKing]

Thanks. Don't know if was posted but here goes.

Was this last truck scratch built?? Your detail and paint work is outstanding... I would love to see a step by step build of yours. have you ever posted a build thread from start to finish??

 

[bulldog_mack13]

You really are an artist. Id love to have one of your trucks in the office - Jay

Man, it's like the vehicles were shrunk up to miniature size. I'm expecting real tiny troops to start coming out of the passenger compartments. Great work!

Thanks. Glad you like the build. The Gun Truck is a partly scratch built and heavily modified. I used the Italeri basic kit as a start. I have not done many WIP shots but only a few. The ones I've done are these:

The Patriot

The Stryker ATGM

The LAV III

The LAV III- The final look

I have since gone over to 1/24 & 1/25 scale trucks, mostly Scania, MAN and other European trucks. I'm preparing myself to Scratchbuild and modify them to military versions.
