Hi everyone,
I'm back again... well, let's see how that goes.
Big Plans again. You will get some progress on older builds and new things too, I will try to mix a little of both new and old builds, some I'm sad that I didn't finish other I'm glad I didn't..
You'll get something from IDF ( tanks and APC ), USA ( Hummvee's, MRAP, tracked APC ), Germany 1930-1945 ( Tanks and some self-propelled Artillery ), Russian ( post 1945 to 2020's, wheeled or tracked) and some Aircraft from 1:72, 1:48 or 1:32 scale.
So here we go...
From Tristar and Tamyia,

I done that M2A2 but never finished it, I'm sure I wasn't happy with the colour so never went back to it I had the resin armour set to go with it. It built up lovely as you expect from Tamiya

It built up lovely as you expect from Tamiya I hope so, on this " Restart of my Plastic Engines" , I need a Tamyia kit for sure, since a few other will give a few headaches .. I think I will with the NATO camo, since the M3A3 will have a desert finish.

It took me awhile, but we'll see how this goes. Also finishing a few other things that stayed inside a box in the garage or storage area..
Anyway, thanks to everyone for the support.
Yesterday I was talking to my friend, LHS owner, and I noticed that these restarts are a little harder because I feel that the knowledge / skills that I earned during the modelling years take a little more to get back. I'm always second guessing myself..." Can I still do it ? " , "How the heck should I build this part / paint this part ? "
And all these doubts are always fighting with your mojo... sometimes they win sometimes they don't

JP is back! I'm sure you can build anything you want with fantastic results my friend, and a little challenge here: If you back to build the HUMMVEE, I'l back to build mine, that was in the box, with a resin suspension, tons of PE and a mine roller from Legend. I know you remember this one.  BUILD! BUILD! BUILD!

You'll do fine I am sure John, specially with a Tamiya kit on the bench  . In no time it'll all come flooding back and then you'll wonder why you took a break in the first place

Yes, I remember that Bronco Hummvee.. I had an accident with mine.. while moving some things around, fell on the floor,
But... last year I found another of those great Bronco kits available. Got one. I still have the mine roller. I got a few of those antennas, some big guns from LiveResin, an engine. I still want to get some stowage from a Trumpeter's Stryker, Jerrycans.
You will just have to wait for me to finish the Bradley's And we're back !!!

Hi John! Estou muito bem, e você? Abraços para ti!
Wow, many AM parts.. I'll wait my friend. I'll start to clean the parts and think a good strategy to build the PE!
