here's a 1:72 diorama I made some time ago depicting the very first tank on Philippine soil: a French Renault FT-17 probably brought home by the US forces in Europe after WW1. It depicts the 1st Regular Division Philippine Army infantry training at Camp Aguinaldo 1936-40.  By cesarphotos at 2010-03-30  By cesarphotos at 2010-03-30  By cesarphotos at 2010-03-26  By cesarphotos at 2010-03-26 The figures are 1:72 ESCI British Infantry which I modified to look like Phil. Army. The base is a paperweight. My 1:35 M3 White Scout Car (Philippine Army) by Zvezda. This won 3rd place at our recent scale modeling competition.

Army markings:  By cesarphotos at 2010-03-26  By cesarphotos at 2010-03-26 I've always liked building PA subjects. Is that trying to tell me something about my next WW2 impression?

Hi PF,
Yes it's the late General's personal Tank named after his wife. They were the first PA tankers to received them brand new.

Phi;ip i think the remaining M41 in the afp museum should be re painted as Daisy Mae. if Gen, Agilar plans materialize this should be one of the first project.

I like the custom models in Philippine setting. I don't think I'll ever get that good. Kudos to you guys for representing our history!

When I finally succumb to the temptation to start building models again, it's going to be your fault. Another money drain ;D

I've been researching PEFTOK chaffees. Not much info available except that they were from US stocks.

Good models. I used to remember those military parades when I was a kid in the Philippines.
