    1:18 LAW Custom

    I'm producing this along with my work on the rucksacks. To my knowledge, this will be the first accurately scaled M-72A1 LAW in 1:18. But since it is the same body style as the current M-72A7 LAW, it can be used for modern Afghanistan inspired work as well. I had this modeled to be placed...

    Rucksacks and Military Equipment Castings

    Gentlemen, I'm in the process of talking to a 3D modeler about some pet projects I've always wanted to complete. As a soldier, history major and scale modeler, I tend to be more of a stickler for details and accuracy in personal equipment that is often lacking in mass produced toys. What I...

    New JSI Huey

    UH-1 Helicopter 1:18 JSI International JSI-60028 - Aiken's Airplanes Store Does anyone have any information on this? I know that some product art came out several months ago on rehashed versions of the UH-1C. But at a $200 pre-order, it seems unlikely that this is just another UH-1C gunship...

    Aero Scout! 1-9 'CAV OH-6A

    I thought I'd post this in a new thread since the Loach is complete…well, mostly. It isn't entirely weathered yet. But I wanted to get the completed and painted product posted before I went on a long trip. [/IMG] [/IMG]

    The Killer Egg Project

    I'm on a break from weathering and completing my other M-48 and M-113. In fact, I've been on a lengthy 1:18 break since my wife and I moved into a new home and I had to refurbish an old woodshop into a hobby room. I started this OH-6 last summer. I've only been recently able to sit down and...

    More from 'Nam

    Ok, the first of two M-48's is 99.5% done. I just need to weather the tracks. Painting the crew is another story...

    The Patton

    Gents, this summer hasn't been as productive for hobby work as I had hoped it would be up until now. While the time has been productively busy, I spent much time looking at the shelf full of projects and looking forward to the time to be able to just sit and get to work. This past weekend was...

    Vietnam Mech Team Update

    The first of the two M-113's is largely done. I need to install antennae and work on some more of the stowage. Eventually I'll get around to the figures...

    M-113A1 with Cupola (WIP - NEW PICS)

    Here is the moment I've been waiting for! Necessity is definitely the mother of invention. When I joined SSHQ last fall in the midst of my wild "I want to customize 1:18" hair, I saw Pickel's ACAV cupola's from back in 2005. Since he wasn't available, I decided to look into doing my own...

    M-48A3 WIP

    Here is one of the M-48's. It's largely done until I get the decals and stowage. I do need to use K-Tiger's searchlight cover technique. Once I get the decals, I'll weather and add stowage. Photos of stowage will be forthcoming.

    M-113 Preview

    I'm relatively new to 1:18 and I'm working on some ambitious Vietnam projects. Here is a WIP preview of my M-113. I look forward to posting more.
