Schwerer Gustav railway gun
Yes, I’ve gone and done it. I’ve bought the Hobby Boss Dora #82911 1/72 railway gun and it’s going to be built as the Schwerer Gustav. I’ve been looking at this model, and the 1/35 scale version, since the beginning of the summer almost every day. The 1/35 scale version is just too big, and possibly also too expensive, to build and put somewhere, but in 1/72 scale it’s a whole different thing. It’s...
Entwicklungs-fahrzeug Sammlung #1
I’ve finally sourced the E-5 and it’s the Amusing Hobby 35B001, which is a bonus tank in some bundles – and hard to find I can add… There was no chance in hell to buy it on its own so I had to buy another Amusing Hobby 35A015 kit to get the E-5, and it turned out to be the most expensive kit in the whole project, despite being the smallest… Oh well, that’s modelling for you. I will add the E-50...
Entwicklungs-fahrzeug Sammlung

But all these tanks are fictional so how, why and what to base it on then? Well, there have been more than a few pure fictional E-tanks throughout the years stemming from computer games, images and fictional scratch building. I’m going to base...
Incoming models for review 12.11.18
Incoming kits, models and products for review – now that the postal service seems to work again… After having major issues with Post Nord in Sweden things now seems to work again, but it required a lot of registered complaints and legal action… The money I lost from having to pay double shipping costs on many packages that were simply returned instead of delivered was impossible to claim back. Apparently mail in 2017...
E-100 Triplets
Like the title says – this is a triplet build with the three different 1/35 E-100 variants from Amusing Hobby and they’re going to be built in stages. The first E-100 (Panzer) is already built and is waiting for paint whereas the Flakzwilling is built as a GB next year. The Jagdpanzer will be built when the Flakzwilling is done. The plan is to paint all three of them at the same time since they’re all going to be...
