The white 1963 Mustang II is a concept car and is painted in the American National colors. Another great build, Mark!
Mark Welchk brought in another big one! This is from a new company out of China, Coolbrook and is the Crusader III MkVI. This amazing RC tank has working metal suspension, 360 degree turret rotation, gun elevation, 3 LED lights, the machine gun flashes red when fired, main gun flashes when fired. There are headlight and a searchlight, and a ddSchool controller (?). Marked as 1st squadron/2nd Dragoon Guards/2nd Brigade/1 Armored Division,2nd El Alamein. That is impressive…but we were disappointed it didn’t fire live ammo at Seekman!
That's all folks!
And here is his Revell P-47N painted with Mr. Color Gunze, Ultracast resin seat, Furball Decals, weathering with Ammo by Mig washes and pastels. Great modeling, Mr. Seekman!
This is the Tamiya Spitfire MKV(?) painted with Tamiya Acrylic,Ultracast resin seat, Eduard 3D interior, Aero Master decals, and weathered with Ammo by Mig washes and pastels.
Next up is Tom “Sherman” Miller….wait, make that “Sheridan” Miller! This is the Tamiya M551 from a few years ago. He updated with a Monster 3D wire net and a DEF gun barrel. Ammo by Mig paint and pigments. Decals from Echelon Fine Details. Lookin’ good, Tom!!! (Note the hands free photo!) ;-)
Mark Jahsan says these two auto models will be the end of the car models for while…bummer! The one on the right is a 1/25 AMT 1967 Shelby GT350. Mark says it is a fictitious racer, stripped down the interior, and scratchbuilt the roll bar. 3D wheels from Mean Machine (really cool!), and the decals are from his spares box.
We start today with the incomparable Doug Seekman. He’s built a few 1/48 aircraft over the years and he’s brought in three more today!
First is his Eduard Tempest MKV painted with Gunze Mr. Color, Eduard Space 3D interior, kit decals, and weathered with Ammo by Mig washes and pastels. Beautiful!
