25 May 2014 : Today I am proud to present Model Maniac Page 74 - Part D. In this Part "Art Instructor" presents 8 new armors and artillery - half WWII & half modern.
Starting from BMP-2 from Dragon and M923 A1 "Big Foot" from Italeri, followed by Swedish CV-90-40C w/ Additional All-round Armour from Hobby Boss, M42 Duster
from Tamiya, M2A1 105mm Howitzer WWII Late Version from AFV Club and Commando Car from Italeri, then topping it off with WWII German Motorcycle R75 w/ Sidecar
