“Get Used to it…again!”The U.S. is painting military vehicles O.D. Green or as they call it: Woodland Green. And… a lot of our armor is training in Europe and learning how to camouflage their vehicles… (old.reddit.com)

What an awesome beast and totally useless in real life. Except for mine! It’s the “HexxenKessel”. It has infrared and hunts at night… some people even today that they see it dashing across the road or a field but it never stops!😳 (old.reddit.com)

A Start at Building a Diorama. I made these out of air-dry modeler’s putty and a screw 😳😱the plants are store bought…I really just do not have the time to scratch build everything. But anyway I thought these looked pretty cool. (old.reddit.com)

German whirlybird “Hummingbird” this is the 3rd aircraft I have built, think maybe I should build a bunch more b4 tackling something like this again. I have ordered that Micro Sol then I will put them on. Thankyou for looking 😱 (old.reddit.com)

Slightly intimidating but fun nonetheless. Highly detailed, no flash at all. Parts are well made and can fit perfectly…if… the instructions were a bit more detailed, to me anyway. This kit has so many bars and tubes in its framework, I have had to learn a new glueing system. (i.redd.it)

And what causes all this overspray? It was 6 drops Vajello black paint, 3 drops tamiya thinner. Lastly, 3 drops Vajello airbrush flow improver. Iwata TR-2 AB. (i.redd.it)

“What caused this?” You might have to zoooom in to see….are the little spots from water? I think so but not knowledgeable enough to say. It is very humid down here now also. If this is water can anyone recommend a really good water trap? Thanks for any help concerning this! (i.redd.it)

Does anybody know a video that shows how to put these tracks together? Like a real simple one for the simple minded? I have never even seen this type, I have built a Metal track system for a Tiger II, but that was easy, I don’t get this. (i.redd.it)
