T-34 Tanks


Red tanks roll past the commissar.


Tank after tank.


Row after Row.


A mighty torrent of armor.


Each row is a company of tanks!

Painting Walls


This is castle doom.  I painted it a light grey prime paint.  Then I used four shades of progressively lighter grey.


I applied the paint using this little triangle of make up remover foam.

Atomic Annie


I converted an AHM 14 inch US Army railway artillery gun into an Atomic Annie.


These bits are being primered before painting.


This truck is mostly Evergreen plastic sheet with a few Roco bits.


The pink flamingos are part of my WWII Berlin project.  They will be painted bronze and used to mark the entrances to the zoo aviary.

Castle Doom


Castle Doom, interior.


It's not finished yet, I am test fitting the various furnishings.  Hall of kings.


Observatory.


Guard room.


DR Doom has a device that he can use to shrink people.  This is a tiny city.  Pyramids are from his time in Egypt.


Guard house.  This was built out of the chimney from the original building.  It is a separate out building.

Castle Doom


Work continues on Castle Doom. 


I am test fitting the furniture.


Science stuff.


Boiler room.


Hall of Leaders.


Work continues on the outside.  I am painting the window frames.


I am using Tamiya Purple spray and bottle paint.


I selected purple in keeping with the comic book theme of the building.


The window frames are mostly heavy, in keeping with the castle theme of the building.

Demons


Every alley is a demonic lane.


Every open space is covered with demons.


Reporting to Hell.
 

Demons plaguing soldiers.


Soldiers screaming in torment.




The horrors looming everwhere.


And the Devil overlooks it all!
