1:72 Sd.Kfz.251/2 Ausf.D

[Guest]

Started this one some time ago but got fed up with it as my eyes could not cope with the small detailed parts, so i put it to one side & there it stayed for the last 3 mths.

The other day i took stock of what i had liying around on my work bench, i did not realise just how many kits i had started & not finished, ie 1:25 Panther, 1:35 Famo & Sd.Ah.116, 1:35 M-1 Abrams, Pk 74/75, Stuka & this one.

So with no further ado i set about rectefing this, i have since finished the Panther, the Pk 75 is done & ready to go on my winthr GB, then spent the last two days finishing this one, it's a bit of a rush job so it's not very well made so be gentel with me.

Don`t despair John , great build mate and fantastic work on the pe it must be tiny and a nightmare to do , as for the views it could be that many of them were guests and this post could of gone of the page quickly with so many new posts being posted , if most people like me only check the last posts in 24hrs many things get missed .

Great work John

Hi John no its not that bad at all, are the baskets on the side photo etch ? and if so do they come with the kit? Looks very good on such a small scale no wonder you put it away for a while

[Guest]

John if you go onto forum then scroll to the bottom it shows how many people are online in the forum , at the moment it shows 7 members and 84 guests which shows the ratio of people who can post , I sure praise will roll in soon

Cheers

I can only second what Richy said John, that PE must have been hell to do! I think it's a really nice build, very good work in such a small scale. Glad I didn't miss this one.
