Meng Char 2c

[tanktrack]

Hi guys i think i will have a go at the meng char 2c  french tank , it is a big tank ,and 1 of the biggest tanks of ww1/ww2 .


I have made a start the detail is amazing but i have had to build 74 sets of wheels for the beast and then clean the edges with a file .

Nice choice of kit, I will be watching this one as I got one this week myself, there's plenty to be keeping you busy with this build, especially in the running gear

[monica]

what a very different pick,will be watching this one,

Supposed to be a good kit and, as you say, huge.  It would dwarf a Tiger.  Look forward to seeing it come together.

That's an interesting kit & it must have been very imposing on the battlefield.


As long as they had fuel - most were destroyed or abandoned due to poor French logistics

I have made a bit of progress with this kit the detail is fantastic and the parts go together so well , the only criticism i would have is that some of the tabs where they join the part to the sprue are a bit big and need a good careful clean

This is a subject you don't see too often. In fact I don't think I've ever seen build of the Char 2C!


This promises to be a really interesting build and, from the look of the kit, a finely detailed one too.


Great stuff

Not seen one of these before Steve it looks very large and cumbersome, but a very nice choice I wil watch the rest of this one.

Blimey, looks like the sort of thing a young lad would draw, if asked to draw a tank! Never heard of this tank, but am now watching this. Looking great, into the bargain!
