ferrarijoe Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Hobby Boss Modern Oshkosh M1070 truck tractor paired with Systems & Electronics M1000 Heavy Equipment Transport. Good kit lots of photo-etched. Instructions a little vague when it came to plumbing trailer. Mirrors were added after pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unclescott58 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Man! Are those cool and beautiful models. The detail is fantastic! How long did it take you to build these kits? And being military, what scale are they? Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferrarijoe Posted September 2, 2014 Author Share Posted September 2, 2014 All are 1/35. The dragon I did about 14 years ago. They take about a week for me. The hobby boss a little longer I changed the color scheme half way threw. As it shows need to take the airbrush to it. I have figures for the Famo just haven't got around to them.

Ace-Garageguy Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 (edited) Wow! Again, fantastic. Scott What he said. Are those drive chains on the rear axles of the Dragon separate, or did you just do an outstanding job of detail painting? If they're separate, are they included in the kit? I've never imagined such fine chains existed. The cables on the winch spools are about the most realistic I've seen, too. The German railway-gun in the background looks like Dora without her barrel. What's the story on that spectacular model? Edited September 3, 2014 by Ace-Garageguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferrarijoe Posted September 3, 2014 Author Share Posted September 3, 2014 Chain is molded just like tamiya bikes. Just painted it x10 gunmetal. The winch cable is just the thread that came with kit. I dipped it in x10 gunmetal then ran it between 2 fingers to get rid of excess paint. Everything except the tank came with the kit. It was my first kit with photo etched and didn't know what i was doing (most of the time I still don't) so I didn't paint most of the metal.
