Here are the numbers from my closest (doesnt included any built kits) and is composed of AFVs/wheeled vheicles only
Modern = 0
WWII 88
Rusian = 0
French = 0
Japanese = 0
Italian = 1
British = 7
US = 10
German = 73
I have well over 600 resin figures, but a rough guess without actual counting would be about Allied ~ 35, German ~ 500+
Obviously I am heavy into the German vehicles, but here is my view.
There might be 300 versions of a sherman but when I look at a sherman they all look alike to me. I dont see the differnces in my minds eye that sherman fans see; they just appear as a lump of ugly green dough to me. Were as I can look at PZ III or IVs and my mind sees noticable differences. One thing I believe I might differ from other German builders on, is that my german collection contains only 1 Tiger (cause it came with an interior and I was into interiors then) and no panthers.
The allied armor that interests me the most is the early war stuff - like valentines, crusiers, vickers, stuarts, Lee/Grants and the wheeled armored cars of all periods of WWII. French vehicles and Russian vehciles hold no interest for me. In fact if I had to build a vehicle of either nation the only two that I would consider is the Panhard armor car and the KV I.
The funny thing about the above numbers of kits, is it was modern US armor or threat vehicles that got me back into modeling long ago, but now I dont have even a single one in the closet. |
