Only picked up a couple of models this month, I did manage to finish the Leopard 2 CLICK HERE to check it out.
So I grabbed two models based on the German flak guns.

More Model Tanks! I picked this little guy up on eBay. It is a Leopard 2 Scale Model made by Lee. I have never heard of this company before but the model looks good out of the box.
Models July 2019
I picked up a few pieces on eBay auctions. I have finished the Cargo Truck CLICK HERE to see and the M108 Howitzer CLICK HERE to see.
I will crack on with the tiger tank and the A1 bigfoot cargo truck also trying to make a start on 1/350 scale Trumpeter the dreadnought warship this month, still working on the SD.KFZ 222 but that is a real slow burner.

Lots of stuff happening, probably the most exciting item on the agenda this month was The Sam went down to London and popped into the Asian supermarket.

More Military Miniatures this month! Not a lot of shopping, I picked up this beast below. I have seen quite a few people making these larger builds and they look so cool. This I found on auction and managed to acquire it for £41. This should keep this model maker going for the rest of the Summer.

Cargo vehicles are another subject that fascinates me during a war. Logistic in the warzone in general I guess. An army can only advance as fast as it resupplies. I actually know a guy who drives for the army and it is a serious undertaking. I also love flatbed trucks. No idea why! Just do! So for this military models project, I’m building the GMC 6×6 Cargo truck

So the first thing about the model is the size of the parts that make it a lot easier to deal with. To be honest, when this is built I have no idea where to put it as it will be pretty big.

After having a lot of success with the £5 lightbox, I started a new little project. I have been working on a few scale models at the moment that are a little too large to photograph in the lightbox I have. So with a few bits around the house from DIY projects, I began by throwing together a quick frame for a new lightbox.

So success, I have finally finished the Apache, a huge learning process, for one, now I know to lighten the base colour before adding the varnish and washes. Also, I need to add the cockpit roof earlier to avoid gaps.

So this month I have been as sick as a dog. Battling a cold for all of. I picked up this cold and it was killing me at work. I knew I just had to get to the end of the week and I had a weeks leave. So got to my week off and I was dead. Normally if I get a cold it lasts maybe 24 hours, this thing was going on for 2+ weeks and my throat was killing me, like seriously I was dropping ibuprofen and paracetamol to the max dosage and was still fucked up.

I Am Your Leader?
So I thought I would give Instagram a try. Wasn’t really sure what I was going to post but thought being an Instagram Influencer sounded like a pretty good deal.

Picked up a couple of bits this month just going to run through them quickly.
Two Messerschmitt ME 262 models. As well as a fair bit of German Armour. Pretty happy with how the scale model stash is coming along.
