Merry Christmas

1st Cavalry Vietnam

Here is Young Miniatures bust.  I modified the helmet by removing the playing card and smokes.  Painted with acrylics

Panzer 3 !!

I started this project waaaay back in 2011.  It sat on the shelf for years.  the figures were basically done.  About mid July I picked it up and finished it.   I did add some extra details.... clamps, nuts and bolts antenna holder- that kind of stuff.  I am not an armor modeler.  But I think this old kit is still up to today's standards.

War Daddy

Here is Life Miniatures "War Daddy" 1/16 scale figure.   Enjoy!

101 Airborne- 200mm Pegaso

This is the Pegaso kit- 200mm 101st Airborne Trooper. I use mostly acrylics and a little oils for the leather stuff.

1st Virginia Continental Line 1781

I am proud to present this bust- 1st Virginia Continental Line, 1781.  this is a new kit offered by the Artists preservation group (APG).  the bust was sculpted by Mike Stelzel and painted by me.  

The kit will be available on June 1, 2017.  Right now the APG store website is being constructed, so contact Mike if you would like one.  He can be reached at infomikeapg@aol.com  $45 plus postage.  The monies go towards a great cause.  If you are not familiar with the APG, please check the website out  https://artistpreservationgroup.com/

I believe this bust will be auctioned off at an upcoming APG auction.

German Trench Raider WW1

Here is Young Miniatures WW1 Trench Raider dude.  I used Vallejo and Jo Sonja acrylics.  I kept the helmet plain, as a lot of modelers have painted with the cammo pattern.  But after reading several books, it seems the plain helmet was more common.  I dirtied it up with assorted pigments and gel mediums.

B17 Crewman, 351 Bomb Group 1944

First One of 2017!

Here is a little vignette of two 101st  Airborne troopers getting ready to load up on D Day.  1/35 scale, Minisoldiers brand.  Resin, painted with acrylics and oils.  Not used to something so small!
