Rui SHi, Christian,
I'm glad I caught your attention hehehe. so thank you for your nice comment mate.
Yap, lot's of sceneries and details for a dio. You are the 144 expert so you chose.
I'm thinking in make a post on some simple maintenance/fuel carts, always around in airfields.
Maybe a nice feature adding to your dio, hum?
Cheers

Kerry COXRui, Negate the inquiry on the 4 blades mate, as I see on image 58 and 59 look nothing like a He-219.🙂
I think I am seeing a He-117 'Grief'
23 October 2015, 12:47
Rui SHey Kezza,
this is the MT2 album, it's in the other one MT1, that you saw them:
Military Thinking MT1 | Album by mig (1:35)
I've been looking for info on those 47, 53, 74, 75 photos but didn't find nothing yet.
Cheers, bumbling hehehe
23 October 2015, 14:27
Wim van der LuijtHi Rui, does all this good stuff come from books or pdf's? You must have quite a collection!
23 October 2015, 14:38
Rui SHi Wim, Thx.
Yes, I've been collecting books and magazines (both physical support as pdf's) for years, and I'm an German AFV guy.
23 October 2015, 14:46
Christian BruerPhoto no. 66 – mmhh I don't think these are holes in the roof but a damage on the photo – negative or print?! But anyhow, that is an impressive photo of a Wespen Geschwader OneOneTen!
Thx for sharing🙂
Cheers, Christian
23 October 2015, 17:23
Rui SBe welcome Mate.
Maybe you are right, but the idea is there, right? Lot's of hangar's where bombed and some completed destroyed.
Cheers
23 October 2015, 17:28
Rui SNOW:
Some info and colour plates of the Jagdtiger with Porsche suspension.
Hope you mates find it interesting, 😎 😉
24 October 2015, 14:07
Hunter CumminsThank you a ton for those pictures Rui, !! Have you found any more?
2 November 2015, 13:24
Rui SHello Hunter.
Thx for your comment, much appreciated.
I was not looking for photos of the tank it self, just colour plates, and other info.
I'm sure I will post some pictures of the Tank if you want so.
I have to say, that its not easy to find a lot of pictures about the 11/12? Porsche Tiger II. More so, the ones without zimmerit. but I will look into it soon, and post some.
Cheers, Mate
2 November 2015, 15:33
Hunter CumminsAwesome! And have you found more color plates? The ones that I have seen here are wonderful and have my brain thinking!
3 November 2015, 12:47
Rui SHi Hunter,
Thx for the comment. Much appreciated.
I've lot's of colour plates, but they show the Porsche Jagdtiger II with Zimmerit, or The Henschel ones.
Cheers
3 November 2015, 14:07
Hunter CumminsIf they have zimmerit that is perfectly fine, and would like to see them if possible!
4 November 2015, 00:32
Rui SHey, Hunter
Some more info and photos on the Porsche Jagdtiger.
Hope you like it.
Cheers
4 November 2015, 15:13

4 November 2015, 17:22
Rui SHi Hunter,
Thx for your comment.

Hope they are valuable for you.
Cheers

Rui SHi Hunter,
New colour plate of the Porsche Jagdtiger II, 314 of the Panzerjager Abteilung 653
28 December 2015, 17:16
Rui SHey Mate.
Lately I've been a little off with other chores.
But thanks for your kind words.
Cheers 😉
28 January 2016, 23:22
Kerry COXWelcome back Rui 🙂, and like Choppa said.
The album is almost like the Google reference library. 🙂 👍
Cheers. 🙂
28 January 2016, 23:34
Rui Shehehe, Hi Kezza.
This one started as a support thread about hangar's for the UHU GB, remember?
Everything ok 👍
Thank you for the nice words Mate.
28 January 2016, 23:42
Kerry COXAll is great Rui, and there is quite a bit of activity going on around the Academy F-4C phantom you must look at, in Derek's, Cliffs and mine. 🙂
28 January 2016, 23:46
Choppa NuttaActually if I recall correctly Rui it started out as a collection for military tactics 😉
I remember, I was there mate when it first blossomed 😄
28 January 2016, 23:50
Rui SYes I've noticed that without comment (not my cup of tea 😉.
Your productivity and effort are very impressive Mate.
Do you ever rest??? hehehe 👍
28 January 2016, 23:51
Rui SYap Choppa, you are right, but I was speaking about this MT2 not the MT1 👍
29 January 2016, 00:32
Rui SYap, the MT1 was so big that I was invited to start this MT2.
The one you help creating MT1 is in the following link:

29 January 2016, 00:40
Kerry COXRui, I am really amazed at what you find mate, and I am tempted to look for some other bike models, as the German army had a strong presence and used the Zundapp (Thank you Bart. 🙂 ) in just about all theatre they were involved in, and didn't they pack some kit onto them !!!
Cheers mate and as always, thanks a million. 🙂 👍
5 April 2016, 11:23
Rui SThx Kezza,
Yes, but they also used BMW (hehehe), DKW and as usual, any civil ones they could put there hands on. Good topic, no doubt 👍
5 April 2016, 11:34
Kerry COXBart, I have corrected my BMW entry and gave you credit and I thank you. 🙂 I am sure I have seen some images of WWII where the BMW badge was on the tank. 👍
5 April 2016, 11:36
Rui SAnd as you say in
WLA Major engine repairs in the field. | Album by RedRoo (1:35)
"a lot of the MiniArt box art is from the photos you can find on the net" I would complement with not only MiniArt but others also do that.
5 April 2016, 11:48
Rui SFor example this picture I found and this box art from Zevzda
scalemates.com/kits/121012-z..07-r12-with-sidecar-and-crew
and talking about "didn't they pack some kit onto them !!!"
some more pictures worth a thousand words... 😎
5 April 2016, 12:08
Kerry COXYup, and all appreciated as always my friend. And, I must ask. Are you going to Wangarooge next year, as I am making the trip there as part of my quick visit to Europe before I turn to dust. lol 🙂
17 May 2016, 19:00
Rui SHey mate take your time.
I would very much like to participate but unfortunately not possible for me.
But I will be checking your progress in the Island.
You must drink one nice bear for me hehehe 😉
17 May 2016, 19:13
Kerry COXBeer or Bear mate, as I don't fancy holding a bear still while I have a beer. LOL 🙂 👍
17 May 2016, 20:37
Rui SYou should Mate,
We could fancy drink some SAGRES beers and enjoy the sun shining 😉 😎
17 May 2016, 20:55
Kerry COXSounds like a good idea Rui. 🙂
I have heard that the food in Portugal is something worth hanging out for too. 👍
18 May 2016, 00:46
Rui SYah Mate. The food and beer is good, sightseeing and history is great, the weather is optimal and people very friendly. No bears around, hehehe 😄
Yes, you should come and visit Portugal 👍
18 May 2016, 21:19
Kerry COXI was watching with real interest where millions of brand new, never used Roman coins were unearthed in Portugal just recently, apparently to hide them from the Germanic tribes that were running around back then, wacking everybody over the head. :-s
18 May 2016, 23:36
Rui SGERMAN TANK BATTERY'S.
Not an easy item to see in WWII photos. Hope it helps 😎
24 September 2016, 02:03
Rui SThank you very much Spanjaard.
You might like to see also the MT1 in the following link:

24 September 2016, 22:05
Spanjaardyes, interesting, thanks a lot.
if i may say something... I would suggest to make the albums smaller, have one topic on each for example. then is easier to browse them, or use them as reference.
and if may ask, is there a way of uploading pictures more than 6 or so at a time? or you really spent hours to get those albums? lots of patience and dedication then 🙂 thanks again.
