BRINGING THE GALAXY HOME IN A BOX

"IN THE SHOP" WITH SMT

Welcome to 2022 everyone!

Since 1997 SMT has provided amazing kits, finished miniatures and parts to modelers and collectors worldwide.
No more! I now embark on a journey of realizing those models that I want for my own collection. Some will be studio scale, some will be scale replicas and others may even involve a few 1:1 props. I'll post updates here from time to time as I progress.

I am currently working on my model of the V tanker in 1:35 scale. I first drew up a set of plans modeled from the SMT studio miniature kit and then 3d modeled (and with some traditional modeling) and produced a set of the parts. These are completely in house SMT files developed from our studio scale V models. That work has been mostly completed and I am proceeding on the build as time permits. I created the entire small shuttle first, but will only be using only the components needed for the Tanker build. Soon I will start to layout the tanks and middle body sections.

As the following model has now been delivered to Heritage Park, I am able to post a few photos. 1/48 (O scale) model of Dingman Well #1 (1914), Turner Valley, AB. This is in the Innovation Center display. The pictures here don't quite show the finished model and I will update to those when I have a chance. Special thanks to Jon Gregory who did the fine woodworking while I tackled what would be all the mechanical "steel" parts. Created from the original Dingman plans, historical photographs and physical measurements of the FULL SIZE replica located at Heritage Park.

In the meantime,I finally got around to casting up the needed 1/24 scale vintage Tamiya Jagdpanther deck for the flattop tank from Space:1999.
Set of vintage AMT wheels molded and cast for a GOMBS member. Happy modeling!
