I've recently found a new hobby:
building scale models of World War II tanks. Anyone here also into that kind of stuff?
Building a German Panther tank at the moment and also working on a German Tiger tank.
Already in the house is a German King Tiger but that will take a while before I'm gonna start building that one.
Obviously I still have to add the tracks and do some detail painting.
I used to have warplanes like this when I was a kid but never managed to paint them, all I remember the smell and taste of the superglue on my fingers haha... It's a cool hobby though and these look great, congrats!
Looks good mate.I've been making these since i was a kid.I think my first one was a Spitfire when i was about 10.I used to hang the planes from the ceiling in my bedroom,had a battle of britain scene going on with spitfires,hurricanes,Messerschmidt etc.
I went through a phase where i made racing motor bikes and F1 cars and touring cars too.It's a great way to spend some time and relax.You can find some great dioramas online or make your own... Have fun....

Thanks.
I'm working out plans to make a diorama myself Normandy 1944 style.
But that will start after I finished building the tanks mentioned above.
It's indeed a great way to relax. And to think about nothing else while building.
