Hey, lads!



I received my HM 1/72 WW2 US Carrier deck this morning and decided to put 2 of my Altaya/Ixo models in situation!!

These vere the Avenger and the Dauntless.



Here is the result.

I long for other 1/72 figures, accessories and tools to complete the diorama.



Take care all!



Jeff…

I was moved by this last shuttle landing.

Thanks to all ground crew, engineers and astronauts who made this possible.

Even if the actual Earth problems seem to be more urgent than Space conquest, the Future will give reason to these courageous beings who gave their lives for a number of them, to help men to go farther along.

Human Race's target is to go away and so it will be.

I love USA!

Hey, men!



This morning I couldn't resist kidnapping this Sukhoi 35 prototype model by my Newspapers reseller.

Initially known as the Su 27 M as a development of the Su 27 before USSR collapse, it was renamed as Su 35 as if it was a radically new plane because further development of the Su 27 had been abandoned.

This model is…

HIP HIP HURRAH FOR BEN !!

Dear all!!

I finished this morning my last A10 model ordnance loading, mixing HM weapons sets with Easy Model 1/72 productions.

That is the result, hereafter!

Take care!

Dear all  !!

This week, I Tried a Tremendous Trick on one of my Terrible flying Tanks (what I call a TTTTT): I used a HM A10 weapons set on my Easy Model A10 Night/All Weather prototype.

Easy Model (ready-to-show Trumpeter model) issued unfortunately A10s series WITHOUT any wing payload, that is indeed not really a good idea regarding the kind…

Dear all !

After the Inventory Matt forced me to operate (lol !) I found some models I never photographed! I added them with other planes extra datas to personnalize the liveries and the historical backgrounds..

Look at "My Photos" to see and perhaps learn some new facts.

Kind regards

Jeff

Well, mates!

HM just issues a 1/72 A26 called "Stinky" (HM3201), belonging to 552ndBS, 286th BG, and based in France at Beaulont-sur-Oise, 1944.

I'm not sure to have saved money enough to buy it, but I discoverd it in my 1/144 IXO bombers series!!!

And there it is!!…

HELLO, YOU ALL !!!

Hello, all!

I literally took a great laughing time reading Colin Riley's article upon his Corgi B36 and the Zinc war between China and South Korea!

This guy owns a hyper developed sense of humor and he is very amusing!. Some of the described scenes, especially when his wife finds the invoice reminded me some similar personal problems !!!

Only one (2) word (s) ! READ THIS!

Jeff

No more room left for my 1/48 planes series!…

A month ago, I heared of a kind of challenged organized by HM.



It consisted of sending photos of his own HM/Skymax collection and a short profile of the collector.



Dave, from HM Collector site, reminded me so, and I sent all datas to HM.



My "reward" for participation is under!!!…

Hey, men!
