The gap isn't big. Just slightly bigger on the left side. Just between the ropes.

I have noticed, that the smaller PE part is, the more fun

That was the smallest I have ever made:

Four bends. I had to do 8 of them

But if it comes to PE parts, the most challenging ones were balls and chaines in Merkava.. Each one made from four parts. Chain, ball and two small wires:

You said this one?

It's not mine, is the kit, is not perfect...believe me!! If you search in the photos will see little parts of putty in some places.

I look this and prefer to left like this, because the putty can solve the different of "levels" between the armours.

Yeah, that one.

I know that is because of the kit. But what I meant is that this is the only one thing that looks like Trumpeter kit Everything else is like one of the best kits ever.

Hi, I'm here again...

The first coat is a mix of Vallejo grey (70601) with German Panzer grey (7021).

The second coat is with Vallejo's German green brown (8000) to do a color modulation.

Tomorrow is the big day!! The first coat of white.....

Thanks

Polux

Hi all!

The white coat is done! I know looks like......grey color, but the light don't helps and will change!

In fact I don't want to do like a new vehicle (out of factory)

The next step is the varnish coat. I will be about 2 days without doing nothing, will leave it dry "good", because I want to do weathering, lights and shadows with oils, enamels and white spirit, I need it very dry!!

Thanks as always

Polux
