I'd say they were 1/35 military truck wheels.
It's the paint job I like most.  Lots of time cutting up masking tape was put into that.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

WHIFs I found yesterday at our bimonthly modellers meeting in Hamburg:








NARSES2

I assume that is the Daimler Benz project in state of construction ?
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

According to this they only made one.  Which means the model with the roof is a Whiff.
Originally meant to be powered by a Merlin.  OK, pass me an Italeri 1/24 Landrover and an Airfix Spit.

I'd only seen the roadster, but apparently they built the second one too before the business closed.

Really nice to see this blast from the past...Captain Harlock...disappointed with the craft in the recent film; original Arcadia was gorgeous.

WHIFs I found yesterday at our bimonthly modellers meeting in Hamburg:

Is this twin-boomer a turbojet-plane? or just unfinished propeller-plane?
[the word "realistic" hurts my heart...]

But I'd assume that a jet-powered bomber is going to hang under it, too?

At last Satuday's IPMS-Seattle Spring Show in the Modelfy category (in Modelfy the subject can be anything as long as it uses parts from
a pre-determined kit or subject chosed by the previous year winner, this year the subject was Mustang, plane or car.)

I give you the MesserSpitWulfStang Mk. 0.  ;D





I'll post the builder's name once I know it.  :thumbsup:

Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model
