Resin model of a 14th Century Polish knight’s shield, painted in acrylics.
#WIP - I often have a couple of projects on the go and switch between them to keep benchtime interesting. Paused to do some surgery to the Indian Army Officer’s sword, so started this C14th Polish knight. Early sketching on face etc so long way to go. #scalemodels #histscalemodels #buildthestash
Bought this model kit at a fair. Didn’t look in the box and didn’t see someone already started the build.
Nonetheless i’am not interested anymore in the model kit anyway and a friend wants to have it.
Cheating? Who cares, it reduces my:

Oh ya, Project Fourteen of #BuildtheStash is well underway. A little cleanup of the resin and a coat of NATO green and we're ready to make it look like a German. #Airborne #Assault #MissionPack #TeamYankee I'm not sure Battlefront provides decals but a guy in Germany makes better ones. Ordered!
A surprise #buildthestash . Languished in the drawer of shame for 4 years, dragged out and completed. She's terrible, but serves as a marker as to the progress I have made. Camera angles chosen wisely. #histscalemodels

It's time for some pastels and I may be a while. 😁

The unit card for a West German Sikorsky CH-53 Sea Stallion helicopter from the Team Yankee Airborne Assualt Mission Pack
Next up #BuildtheStash Project Fourteen is another #TeamYankee kit. Simple project that is part of the #Airborne #Assault #MissionPack. Two 1/100 scale West German Sikorsky CH-53 Sea Stallion Heavy Lift helicopters.
Some very cool stuff for sale at AtlantaCon. I'd snap up that Roci in a heartbeat if it wasn't for #buildthestash. Those Pocher 1:8 scale die cast kits are wild. Probably a few thousand dollars sitting on that table. #scalemodels #histscalemodels
Four 1/100 scale German Bo-105 PAH-1 helicopters
Not really #BuildtheStash but they have been waiting a long time for the paint and finishing touches so here we are. A group of PAH-1 Bo-105 helicopters for #TeamYankeeGame #Panzerabwehrhubschrauber
I finished my first build of the kits I picked up at Rivercon in Shreveport last weekend with a colorful little 1/72 Boeing F4B prewar fighter. putteringinthestudy.com/2026/03/20/1... #HistScaleModels Hats off to Yellow-Wings Decals for a terrific decal set. (It's still technically #BuildtheStash )
Model figure of an officer from the 15th Lancers, Indian Army.
#WIP - the 15th Lancer’s officer is starting to come together now there is colour on his turban and sash. Glad i waited until now to paint him but still being pushed well outside my comfort zone! #histscalemodels #scalemodels #buildthestash

A little update on Build Thirteen. I was focused on Operation Dryer Drum Glide last week so didn't get much done. That said, Mecha Heavy is built and has a light dusting of primer on it. Ready for some colour. #AgeofMecha #ScaleModels #BuildtheStash
Don’t think took many people are working on these two at the same time. #histscalemodels. Trying to get back on the #buildthestash wagon with … two I got yesterday.
A standard bearer for my W'adrhun Blooded wields a menacing banner made up of some sort of large predatory dinosaur's skull with an even larger blade sticking out the back of it, with a banner draped from said blade.
Banner for my W'adrhun Blooded was a bit frustrating to put together, but I am very much so looking forward to painting it! The other 7 Blooded are in various states of assembles, but I'm hoping today will be the day all of them get marked down as assembled!
#buildthestash
I fell off the #BuildtheStash wagon at Rivercon today, but I can’t say no to good 1/72 plane & armor kits for $5!
The Constitution in the classic 1960 Revell 1/196 kit that will be a nostalgia build - I started one in 1976 and never finished it, and always wished I had. #HistScaleModels
Paint it black (or various shades there of). The front office of the CV-22. #scalemodels #histscalemodels #buildthestash
Finally polished the Tamiya Porsche 926C. Bit disappointed with the remainder of the overspray that I can't get off, and there is a mysterious crack in the windscreen.
Plus I've chipped the paint in a couple of places.
Ho-hum. Learning experience, I guess.
#scalemodelling #buildthestash
Next up is the Italeri 1/48 V-22 and the extra bits to convert it to a CV-22. This might be a bit painful. #scalemodels #histscalemodels #buildthestash
I finished my fourth 1/72 Corsair this week – a Tamiya F4U-1A finished as Ira Kepford’s second mount while stationed in the South Pacific with the VF-17 “Jolly Rogers”. putteringinthestudy.com/2026/03/12/1... That's another for my #buildthestash campaign. #HistScaleModels

Work is progressing on my MkIV and Brummbär. Both glossed, decaled, washed/filtered/stained and matt coated. Now for the weathering. 😁👍
#histscalemodels #buildthestash
Ready for gloss finish for decals. We have picked up some spectators, I see. #HistScaleModels #BuildtheStash
Next up - 1/72 F4U-1A Corsair by Tamiya. As usual, initial painting done while parts are still on the sprues. Will touch up camo when the model is assembled. #histscalemodels #buildthestash

I've failed #buildthestash 😔
But the 75% off 100€ rapid pacific special edition typhoon was too good an opportunity to pass up 🥹
Feeling like absolute shit today, but this colour is somewhat cheerful, so there's that.

Still can't believe the random SB2C-1C plane I decided to model was not only a Texarkana boy but a fellow ET ((same college) graduate. putteringinthestudy.com/2026/03/02/1... #HistScaleModels #BuildtheStash
Aware of my limitations as a modeller, but I am super happy with how she has turned out. Just how I visualised her at commencement, a rare event
