Barclay Caras
Oakdale, Connecticut
Don’t look for a kit of this 1/35 scale Daihatsu landing craft: Barclay scratchbuilt it from styrene and wood. After painting it with Tamiya lacquers and weathering it with artist oils, pigments, pencils, and enamels, he added a Pit-Road Japanese 75mm gun and figures and floated it in a tidal estuary of poured epoxy resin.

This year, the Armor Modeling and Preservation Society (AMPS) International Convention returned to Camp Hill, Pennsylvania, from Thursday, May 4, to Saturday, May 6. The event hosted nearly 500 people from across North America and as far away as Great Britain. Vendors occupied more than 100 tables, selling everything from model kits and tools to aftermarket details and reference materials. The judges evaluated 614 models on 80 tables, awarding gold, silver, and bronze medals and “best of” category awards.
