The Duke's Latest Armor

Post by Duke Maddog »

Here is two of the three vehicles I have added to my vehicle collection to date. It feels good to finally finish these after so many months of misfortune and distractions.

First up is the Zvezda 1/72 scale snap-together 40mm Bofors anti aircraft cannon. It was a fast and easy build that went together very well. I just built it out of the box. I can still place it on the included base and add the included figures, but for now this gun is done:

Next up is my Hobby Boss 1/72 scale Israeli Merkava IV. This was a very easy and fun model to assemble and the painting and weathering was a blast. Here she is:

Now I have the complete line of Merkava tanks from I to IV. Now I just need to fill them out with the Merkava IIID and Merkava III Baz.

Oh, and for those who are following the count, these two and my 1/72 scale civilian car bring my collection of vehicles up to 706 completed models.

That's all for now, feel free to check out my latest aircraft and civilian car.

Thanks for looking in, comments are welcome.
