Nothing beats a really good display cabinet. Sadly most retailers don't sell display cabinets suitable for my 1/48 scale aircraft and 1/350 scale ships. That all changed when I was dumping unwanted old electronics at the dump and recycling center and low and behold I spotted a pair of giant retailers display case counter cabinets. They were 30" tall, 20" deep and 54" long with repositionable glass shelves. I replace the locks and door slides and added new lighting to them and now they are better than new. Perfect for my type of models. I am aware some cities have used furniture exchanges including commercial fixture exchanges. If you discover such a place, check them out you might find the perfect display system at a bargain price. Just make sure you are up to the task of restoring them. I am pretty much the envy of my local IMPS chapter with such cases.
I built a ton of models as a kid/teenager. My absolute favorite was Tamiya 1/35 WWII stuff. I couldn’t get enough of it. I’m ready to get back into it as I approach retirement.
Model building is great therapy from the stress and anxiety of my occupation! Great collection 👍
It definitely is for me, too! Thank you for watching 👍
👏💯
Same here brother
Me too🙂👍😎
Same thing for me with Lego 🤩
Thanks man, I recently got back in to modelling and am literally on my third armoured vehicle. I wanted to make a second and maybe a third Sherman but thought I should maybe try different vehicles, however having seen all your Shermans I know that if I want Shermans there is no shame. Love your stuff it really is pleasing to see.
No such thing as too many Shermans, my friend! Build whatever makes you happy. Glad you hear you're enjoying the channel!
I'm 69 and I built scale models as a kid using Testers in the tube but I never had your skill. I would imagine that you could actually design and create your own scale models from silicone molds.
Hi Hank fantastic collection buddy love the bf 109's you've got. Cheers Gary 🇬🇧
Thank you very much - cheers! 🍻
Awesome collection, thanks for sharing. Good for motivating
Awesome collection, my three favs are P-38 Yamamoto raid., I believe the Japanese found him still strapped in his seat outside aircraft holding his Katana. , great F4 , ya need another one for the Thatch Weave :-) Adolf Galland Me 109. He had a great dog he brought back from Spain his name was Schweinebauch ( means pork belly just like me). A big Spaniel . They were best buds, unfortunately the French resistance poisoned him. I'm sure you know O scale trains are 1/48, they might have a Big Spaniel you could add. Plus 55 gallon barrels and maybe sand bags. Last the Higher Call..I did Google Swastica decals and the make them, haven't ordered yet, but plan too. Thanks for the tour.
amazing work!!!!!! my only issue is with the color of the lights. All the models look blueish and not as their real colors are.
Wow. Very nice collection. Very detailed. I'll be sure to watch your tutorials on the tarps and painting. As you continue to expand on your collection, where will you find room? You have such varied interests in different scales and vehicles/aircraft/warships. So nicely done. Thank you for sharing your work. It inspires me to continue my own efforts at assembling and painting kits. I don't have the same level of expertise, but watching tutorials has helped me improve. My MS makes it rather painstaking and laborious to indulge in the hobby,as my hands often tremble. .But i do find it therapeutic and enjoyable, despite the difficulties i have.
Thank you very much! And a very good question... I'll have to get creative with my storage 😅
I'm really glad to hear that the tutorials have been helpful & that you've also found an escape in the hobby. It's a wonderful pastime & a real treat to produce something you can be proud of when it's all said & done. Take care & happy building, my friend 🍻
@@SpruesNBrews Thanks for tye encouragement!🐈🐈⬛
This is duh man ! Building models and drinking quality beers 🍺 Thats beautiful.
Very nice collection! Well done!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you very much!
I give all my built models to my grandson now since i don’t have room anymore at my place.
Looks full, what are you going to do in the future for more models? I do a lot of wargaming minis so it’s easier to store but for scale models im at a loss
Big greetings from Kamchatka !!!
Hello!
Ok, have a shot of tequila every time the word ‘blast’ is mentioned
🥃
Where does everything go once the display case is full? ;)
Are going to due build video for the Tamiya P38J
I'd like to one of these days!
I’m also from Massachusetts, may I ask where you get your kits? Thanks
Ah nice! I try to shop small from dedicated hobby shops, and there are a few good ones online that offer free shipping or shipping at low rates. My favorites include Sprue Brothers, Andy's Hobby Headquarters, Value Gear, Alpine Miniatures, and Ultracast (in Canada - but they offer international shipping).
Viele schöne Modelle
Why do you have the swastikas blocked out on all your German planes?
I don't want that symbol in my house 👍
makes sense. You can still make it look awesome without including that. I’m a former 1AD Soldier myself.
How about the Hetzer, on the left of the first shelf? Work in progress?
Good eye! An old refurb project that I never got around to finishing... one of these days!
@@SpruesNBrews Do it. I'm interested in it.
How did you make the holes in the armor?
Oh which particular kit?
@@SpruesNBrews the last one you showed
🧭⚓✈️🛫🛬🛩️
My name is Jason Wolfgang Ernst Stigler. You have done the family proud and a lovely reproduction of uncle Franz. Thank you
I am now debating if I should buy a glass shelf for models or build my own. My wife broke my mitsubishi zero revell monogram 1:48 scale and threw it out was afraid to tell me gotta build it again. I am also thinking about getting a tamiya tank for my father, and ofcourse a b17 for myself because of masters of the air show.
Fantastic work. You’re an inspiration to me when I’m getting impatient,or lacking drive to make my builds . Thank you mate 🙏
I'm so glad to hear it - thank you so much!! Happy building 👍
I think it's a good indication of your skills that I recognized Marilyn Monroe before you said who it was. Good job. You need some more cabinets!
Excellent! It is so interesting to see your skills evolve; and the fact that you aren't hesitant to update your holdings in keeping with your current skill-set. Way to go!!
Thank you very much!
That was really interesting thanks mate. Love your display cabinet - very jealous! Inspired me to start a little project I have been thinking about for a while. I also collect militaria and specifically pilots logbooks from the Second World War. I have an unusual one to a Luftwaffe pilot who flew the Ju88, He177 and Me262 operationally. I think I’ll start to make 1/48 models of the the aircraft he flew and then move onto the rest of my collection - might take a while though! Keep up the good work - brilliant channel👏
Oh wow! That's really cool! What a great item to collect. Thank you & happy building! 👍
Haven't built Models in over 40 years, and your channel really has got me super excited to get back into it. Super stressful job, need a way to relieve stress, and this is something I'm super excited to get back into again. Thank you for your videos, they are super informative and easy to follow, really appreciate your passion and sharing it with all of us. Thank you
I find alcohol relieves a lot of stress. Maybe try a mix of modelling and beer? I'm not sure what you could call it? Maybe ModelsNBeer?
Did you hear about the Texas Raiders B-17 and P-62 King Cobra crash. Sad. RIP
Yeah😢
I did - a terrible tragedy.
Very nice collection of your work.. Thanks for sharing this with us.👍
I never really got into models until after my time in the military. Now it’s my therapy lmao
Well that's great! It can be a wonderfully relaxing hobby.
I love the 109s from North Africa. Can you explain a little more on those? What manufacturer, which one was the most pleasurable to build, did you do any scratch building, etc? Perhaps you could do a video showcasing them one after the other and talk about the build and any issues you faced. Have you considered adding some support vehicles for the N. Africa diorama, such as a Kubelwagen, Kittenraftrad as a tow vehicle, etc?
Really cool collection of models. Well done for showing them, warts and all.
Thank you! I really appreciate it!
What an awesome walkthrough! Loved seeing your collection. I’m just finishing an X-wing fighter just because. Next I want to do a Corsair fighter because my Dad worked on them while in the Navy during WWII…. Yes I’m that old. LOL
It is a cool spare time. Handley Page Victor by Revell, Vickers Valiant by Mach 2 , Tu - 16 Trumpeter, Short S.A.4 by Magna Models. We did not search easy ways. I did not finish Avro Vulcan previous model. Have a plan to return to modelling with XB-70. May be new Vulcan by Airfix.
OK Hank, I'm starting my first model build. Also thinking about later after the finish of the first one. How 'bout a Corvair 95 ramp side pickup? Maybe a Yenko mod Corvair.
You have a lot of Shermans. You should add the Israeli M50 and M51s! I love the M51. The cannon is just so huge compared to the Sherman itself. It was a nice kit for me. Tamiya kits are pretty much the best.
Thanks for sharing your work, I wish Id kept all my models but alas... Keep them coming and continue your cherishing all the effort each one represents, Salute!
All beautiful builds but you need to work on your lighting, get some programmable LED strip lighting you can change the color temperature, it will make your models pop much better.. put several strips above your models to eliminate all those shadows..
They are very affordable, just a suggestion
that last one -- the Panzer IV -- looks that old Monogram 1/32 scale from the 1970s ... i still have mine as well -- not a bad kit for its time ... nice collection BTW.
wooow so many great kits! Thx for the tour- LOVED to see your kits, the stories behind them, and hear the creative process that went into them!!
That is one really awesome display case!! :)
Can you do a Bandai Gundam model. I have build scale models since about 1976 but quit in about 1995. Started again with Bandai Gundams a couple years ago. Lots of fun
Amazing work man! Makes me want to get back into the hobby! Love all the 109s (my favorite along with the Zero)
Interesting armour models and a very cool razorback P-47. Cheers.
Thank you very much! 👍
Love your stuff. wish I had air brush ETC. still old school enamel brush painting..
You didn't grow a real bonsai tree for your 1st Armored Division vignette? Points lost.
Nice but for me, not detailed enough. but great collection!
😀🥖🍷🍷🍷🍷🥖👍👍🧠🫁🫀👨🏼🚀👕👕👕👕
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
what do u use for antenna's? also I gather you're north shore? well I'm south shore here in Fall River area...homey. I'll have to post my collection someday
I either use stretched sprue or guitar strings - both work well! And yes, up here in Salem in the thick of it 👍
Cool stuff. A better camera would definitely highlight your talents.
Thank you for the tour of your work; inspiring!
Thanks for watching! I appreciate it 👍
Awesome builds! I'm building Tamiyas new Comet should get that next mate it's nice too! Needs a few wee finishing touches as usual likes I had to scratch build a new sight vien from brass sheet n rod amd replaced the grap handles n add wiring here n there but apart from that it went together perfectly its a good build! Oh and it's the like 3rd time I've ever used a kit barrel! The slide Moulded barrel is actually usable the seamlines are so fine a couple of light passes and it was gone! Absolutely unbelievable so used it amd it's perfect now it's all painted! It's getting tracks westherd just now and new figures as there very poor!
I'm really looking forward to picking one up when they become available! Haven't seen any stateside yet 👍
@SpruesNBrews Scale Modeling T REX have done a full 3D printed upgrade for the commet now aswell as the tracks! This is kind of needed this detail set but easly enough to scratch a sight vein up etc but it just looks cool! The kits nice build otherwise
Just picked up my first Ban Dai model kit “Red 5 X-Wing”. Heard some really good feedback on the detail of these kits. I’ll check out the video to hear your thoughts and watch the build.
Oh cool! Sounds like a fun build - enjoy!
I saw this video and practically jumped with joy! Thank you for this!
Oh wow! I'm so glad to hear it - thank you for your support!
I 57 and getting back into scale model building for the first time in over 40 years. When I was a kid Tamiya models were too expensive. They still are Now that I am a grown man but they are the best.
It was monogram who done that panzer 4 first I remember it well lol! It had all the round holes in the shurtzen already haha some kit I think it was a 1.32 then it was re realised under 1.35 from revell
Haha that's the one!
very nice,inspirational to get me moving on builds , thank you
Oh I'm so glad to hear, thank you!
Amazing collection! I am learning 1/35 too...
Great! And thank you!
That last panzer was a panzer iv and it was from monorail
Some great stuff. For your North African diorama with the three planes perhaps you could throw in an SAS raid, very topical with the new BBC series released this week.
Ooo that could be fun, thanks!
Brilliant series! Not strictly true to form but great none the less. I binged watched on iPlayer so I shall withdraw and avoid any spoilers. But would be great to see the SAS jeep with the mounted machine on the rear came barrelling into sight ! Terrific!

Great display of your babies and showing you beginner build skills and how you’ve improved. It gives me hope and the desire to improve mine. I’ve been out of modeling for 65 years and have recently acquired a stash of WWII aircraft and just ordered a M43 ambulance which I drove in Korea in 1966 & 67. Looks like you have a love for armor & 109’s.
Very interesting collection not to mention plaque collection. It is quite obvious to me that your skill grealty outshines mine but it has been roughly 35 years since I was doing models, lots to relearn not to mention learn, technology has definitely improved the sport.
I am interested in doing a ME-262B-1a trainer but everything I have come across has been a ME-262B-1a/U1 night fighter kit in which the rear seat is not for a training pilot but a radar operator. I understand it is quite difficult to transform. Hum, does this sound like a future project, to my knowledge it would be one of a kind.
Do you ever plan on doing any non military models?
Just getting back into model kit building and just finished a B-52 still have to paint it and all
Sounds like a great - big - project! Enjoy 👍
Pure awesomeness.
Thanks so much!!
Love your videos, thanks, got kits up in the loft going back years, time to start modeling again. 👍!
Inspired by you, I am thinking about to give each vehicle a few soldier figures. And cabinet chain light is such a great recommantion, just placed the order from amazon.
god bro.. that is great, you are very talented guy! and i allways enjoy to your art. tnx
Thank you very much - I really appreciate it!!
Very nice collection! How about building a modern fighter jet some day?
Thank you - and definitely! 👍
You need to add the 1/35 sherman with the 60 pond rockets mounted outside the turret.
Cool looking sherman rarely sen.
Absolutely awesome mate!!! Keep up the great work 👍👍
Thank you very much!!
Sounds like you had a blast!
Indeed! 😁
Don't forget the describe the brews and not just the sprues!
A very fair point! 🍻
香港寸金尺土,無你外國這樣大的屋
A lot of talent behind those glass doors.
So kind - thank you!!
Really great!
Very nice collection 👌. I think you ment 1/32nd scale referring to your Bf 109??
I did not! It's actually in 1/35 scale - Border Model just recently released a 109 & a Stuka in 1/35. Pretty cool!
Just asked how you displayed your models. Found it.
Ah great!
I come to find pieces like that they leave behind. They probably would have paid you to get rid of it.
The cabinet?
@@SpruesNBrews yeah people don't like to move stuff that big and heavy. Treadmills everybody I leaves treadmills behind for some.
Great video . Impressive work and congrats on the competition awards
Wow just Wow You have a ton lol myself I only have 3 but I've only just gotten back into the hobby and have other hobbies as well that take my time as well thank you for sharing this with us and great job. 🙂Thomas over at The Model Hobbyist
Thank you very much!!
You can learn a lot of history with building models.
Love to see someone so committed and excellent at there hobby and sharing it with us all.
Wow! What a great collection! It’s cool to see how your skills have evolved from static displays to dioramas. I was curious do you have any good tips for accurate color photos? Thanks man!
Post link to lights!!!
Great models, love the collection and the diversity in scales and vehicles.
Nice work, well done!
Thank you!!
Really enjoyed that tour with excellent narration thanks. Only one RAF model?? My dear Sir there would be none of the others if they weren’t any English military pieces!! Lol. By the way English was how we were generally described at that time.

I've got a few more on the short list! 👍
Your beard is fucking amazing.
Haha thank you very much! I appreciate it!
Gran master!!!!!
That was a blast!
M4 Jumbo.......🤤
Very nice collection! That's my gig too, WWII models/dioramas. Oh, be careful with the heat that those puck lights put out. If they are to close, they will melt the plastics. I found that out on our kitchen counter.
These are LEDs! So no worries about heat - thank you!
Cool collection, looks great! You definitely scored on the showcase you bought. I'm looking for something similar. Enjoy your channel 👍
Thank you very much - I'm glad to hear it! 😁
Awesome display cabinet and great great models very well done sir very cool
Thank you very much!
cool
"we" ????? sigh.
"We" what? I'm sorry... I'm confused about what you're getting at here.
Awesome!
