A “Paper Panzer” hence it existed only on paper though some sources say a hull was found in the closing days of WW2 for it. The Panzerkampfwagen VII Löwe (Lion in English) was designed to have the L/70 high velocity gun and a 1,000 horsepower Maybach engine.
Largest tank by volume ever to reach production. Had a crew of 12 but was too late to see action in WWI. By the beginning of WW2 it was hopelessly outclassed. Number 92 Picardie broke down due to a mechanical and was captured by the Germans. It’s fate is unknown but presumably scrapped. This is the 1/35 scale Meng kit with tailskid kit added.
Plank on frame wooden ship model of the 1848 Le Hussard by Artesania Latina. First wooden kit I ever made back in the ‘80’s. Somehow it survived four major cross state moves in one piece.
Midwest wooden boat model of the dinghy. Scratch made rods and reels with fishing tackle box.
Model by Midwest. Unique tapered hull at either end permitted the lobster boat for gaining access to tight rocky areas of the Maine coast.
Wooden boat model of the Seabright Dory by Midwest. Lapstrake hull construction and used by lifeguard stations. They are now made out of fiberglass.
The Dragon 1/35 scale kit of German Maus of which only two prototypes were built. PE kit was used in the build also.
1/35 scale Meng model of French Renault light tank from WW1. Stock assembly, built out of the box.
