Or more accurately, one in May and eight in June, but who's counting right?
This is the one I finished in May. It is the ancient Hasegawa 1/72 scale Japanese Isuzu fuel Truck:
That thing is only about three inches long, if that.
Next I finished up my two Riich Models M-109 Paladins.
First is the 1/72 scale M-109A2 Paladin, US Army:
Second is the 1/72 scale M-109A6 Paladin, US Army:
Next up, I finally finished all my Takom kits that I had going. Here they are in some particular order....
First up: Takom 1/72 scale British FV-432 APC:
Second, My Takom 1/72 scale British Chieftain Mk.5, which came in the same box as the APC above:
As you can see the smoke dischargers are still off because I haven't found the spare ones in my M-1 Abrams kit parts... mostly because I haven't found my M-1 Abrams kit parts....
The machine guns are missing from these two vehicles as well because the sprue holding the parts for them is missing....
Someday I'll find it and get these completed. Until then, I'm calling them done!
Moving on....
Third is my Takom 1/72 scale Chieftain Mk.10:
This one is missing the ammo box on the machine gun because that tweezerpulted into Oblivion...
And from the same box as the Mk. 10, we have the Takom 1/72 scale Chieftain Mk.11:
My last two models come from Roden, the ever delicate WWI doubledecker Omnibuses.
Here is my Roden 1/72 scale British Type B Omnibus "Ole Bill" in service with Her Majesty's armed forces:
And last but not least; even though it is not military, I'm posting it here at the end for simplicity's sake. This is my Roden 1/72 scale scale British LGOC Type B Omnibus in civilian service:
And that is all I have for this past month or so. I hope you enjoy this parade of vehicles. As always, comments are always welcome, tanks for looking in.

Some nice kits done Duke! I really like the omnibus bus they both look like amazing kits
March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall

Re: The Duke Finishes Nine in June
June is only three days old and you finished up eight builds?! Bravo to you my friend!
I’d be happy to finish nine builds in a year!

Re: The Duke Finishes Nine in June
Thank you Clint! I like those buses as well. That civilian job sure stand out!
Thanks Carlos! Yeah, I could've had nine done in May if certain issues hadn't popped up to delay these models, but that just made it easier to finish them off at the beginning of June. Who knows, I might even be able to finish a few more before the month is out.
Thank you John! Glad you stopped in!

Mark, I would be quite surprised if you do not finish anything else this month.

Re: The Duke Finishes Nine in June
Thanks John!
Carlos, you're right. I think I can get at least two; maybe three over the finish line in the next week or so.
Thanks Mike! yeah, I'm so glad too!
