Just got a warning that my other page was about to be deactivated due to reports that it was offensive or whatever. Attached was a convenient link making it easy for me to avert this imminent disaster about to be bestowed upon my mortal digital soul.
Needless to say I immediately smelled a large pile of BS upon investigating the aforementioned convenient link. Scam!
Reader beware!

Net een melding gekregen dat mijn andere pagina aanstonds gedeactiveerd gaat worden vanwege meldingen dat deze beledigend of zo zou zijn. Gelukkig was er handig linkje bijgevoegd om mij te behoeden voor dit op handen zijnde onheil op mijn sterfelijke digitale ziel.
Na nader onderzoek van het eerdergenoemde handige linkje, had ik direct door dat er luchtje aan de zaak zat. Oplichterij!
Lezer wees gewaarschuwd.

Het re-enactment seizoen 2018 gaat weer beginnen.
Nog net even tijd om voertuig markeringen en signs af te maken.
Zoek je iets speciaals? laat me weten wat je in gedachten hebt! Dan maken we daar wat moois van. ;-)

Grtz,
Michiel

I'm in the crate building business now!!

Got a request from Robert Hendrik.
He wanted a few reproduction ammo boxes for a 60mm mortar crate.
Apart from rough dimensions and a few vage pictures ( #1 & #2) from the internet, I didn't have a whole lot to work with. But I started from the inside out, figuring that if the inner dimensions would fit 10 cartridge cans, I would work my way out with available materials.
Made a design in Google Sketchup ( #3), and locked myself up in the shed.

The rest of pictures speak for themselves! I'm happy with the end-result?
Just a few decals to do, and the job's done! :-)

What do you think?

concept for a ww2 Willys Jeep fender paintmask

09/08/2015

My own project this summer was to try to reproduce a WW2 US Army bicycle.
The donor bike was quickly found. The saddle, saddlebag and handlebar grips (all real old) took a bit longer.
I took the whole bike apart. Sanded it down and put on a few layers of olive drab paint.
Replaced the chain which was rusted beyond restauration.
And last I made some paintmasks inspired by original WW2 US Army vehicles.
The originals I found online hardly had any decals on them, making these ones my own personal touch.

The bike, having just one gear (me) runs like a charm once it's in motion.
