Or more accurately, one in May and eight in June, but who's counting right? This is the one I finished in May. It is the ancient Hasegawa 1/72 scale Japanese Isuzu fuel Truck: That thing is only about three inches long, if that. Next I finished up my two Riich Models M-109 Paladins. First is the 1/72 scale M-109A2 Paladin, US Army: Second is the 1/72 scale M-109A6 Paladin, US Army: Next up, I finally finished all my Takom kits that I had going. Here they are in some particular order.... First up: Takom 1/72 scale British FV-432 APC: Second, My Takom 1/72 scale British Chieftain Mk.5, which came in the same box as the APC above: As you can see the smoke dischargers are still off because I haven't found the spare ones in my M-1 Abrams kit parts... mostly because I haven't found my M-1 Abrams kit parts.... The machine guns are missing from these two vehicles as well because the sprue holding the parts for them is missing.... Someday I'll find it and get these completed. Until then, I'm calling them done! Moving on.... Third is my Takom 1/72 scale Chieftain Mk.10: This one is missing the ammo box on the machine gun because that tweezerpulted into Oblivion... And from the same box as the Mk. 10, we have the Takom 1/72 scale Chieftain Mk.11: My last two models come from Roden, the ever delicate WWI doubledecker Omnibuses. Here is my Roden 1/72 scale British Type B Omnibus "Ole Bill" in service with Her Majesty's armed forces: And last but not least; even though it is not military, I'm posting it here at the end for simplicity's sake. This is my Roden 1/72 scale scale British LGOC Type B Omnibus in civilian service: And that is all I have for this past month or so. I hope you enjoy this parade of vehicles. As always, comments are always welcome, tanks for looking in.

It was a lot harder, to throw people under the bus back then. Some real beauties there Duke.

What a parade, yes that's the right word to describe this update, 1/72 eyecandy. The red bus with its superb decals is my personal fav Duke. Well played, up to the next parade.

Thank you guys for the awesome comments!
You're right Bruce, you really had to be ahead of it!
Thanks Jed!
Thanks Guy! I appreciate that ever so much. Yeah, I usually call this a parade myself; I guess I was just tired when I posted this. I love that red bus too. I'll try to get more done to add to this parade.

Thank you Bucky! For some reason I never got the notification that you had replied here. In actuality, if you count the ones that came a week or two afterward, I finished twelve for this month of June. Don't think the same will happen here in July, but I will try to get a few more finished.
