I only started modelling last year as part of a therapy program. Left overs from fightinh 1979 - 1988, conscription so no choice. I was part of the firt Mechanised Infantry Batallion and ja war leave lots of scars. Me, I have one eye wit 70% site, so the pace is at a crawl.

I have builded sofar a Merkava (special IDF soldier I still own a DVD to), Ratel 90, Challenger II, Sherman M4A3.

On the bench Centurion MK V.

My battle is still painting and weathering and knowing how to break the model up into sub assemblies before painting.

Big tanks to all the sharing on forums, youtube etc.
