If everyone else...

...has their own thread, then I guess this can start mine. I need to take newer photos of some of what I have finished. (That year long unaccompanied tour to Iwakuni was a good building time!) I had some photos, but they weren't so good.

I'll start with my green Puma. This will make no sense to anyone who hasn't read about Tom and his Green Puma, of SS-Freiwillige Legion Irland, over on Feldgrau. There is still a good bit of work to do on this, including painting the repaired muzzle brake. This one isn't going to be super-detailed. I still need to find decent figures for the commander and gunner. I already have the 1/48th driver figures. Sam's a leprechaun and Frodo's a hobbit.

Well there's no doubt about it, that's definitely green.

As a matter of fact, the Puma gunner's alter ego is a member here as well: The Shadow!

I don't have the kit to do The Scarlet StuG, but I will. I do have the Revell 1/72 U-Boat to do the U-007 U-Booty, though!

Someday, when we overcome some illustration obstacles, we're going to publish The Forum Hero Tales. They're rather amusing...

Sounds......... interesting. I look forward to seeing all that. I think??

Actually, I had a tiny bit of doubt...a smidge, if you will...but I was holding back.

Hey Tom, I think it's a sweet ride man...nice work. More pictures soon, please. I'm curious to see the direction this takes from here. Excellent!!!

Wow...is that 'British Racing' or 'Brunswick'? Looks funky. If it was me, I'd paint blue flames up the sides too.

That may well be encouragement we don't need. Then again, blue flames... perhaps with a mauve shader on one side?

Like I said, Nick, there's a story behind it. Someday, if you behave, I'll read it to you.
