discussion Grüezi! (Hello)

[Guest]

Hi there!

I am Marc, and live in the little country of Switzerland. Im not that new to the community of scale models, but ive been adrift for quite some time (almost a year to be honest). Mandatory military service here makes it difficult to spend precious hours on my little beauties.

I mainly focus on tanks since i had some problems with my Me-163, but what im lacking there, i think i can make up in the tank section. Mostly german models, and from them some even on the „what if“ side. Here a few pictures of some examples, like my pride the „Schwerer Löwe“ (a working title, open for suggestions).

(Also work in progress, Char 2B german service modifications)

Thats it for the most part, also finished a E25, which is the first really done tank. As said, dont have time for my other „frankensteins“.

Well, that should do it for now. Ill see if i can squeeze time in on the bench.

Till then,

Marc

They're a nice bunch of modellers here. Lots of support and advice.

Not been here long myself, but it is a worthwhile group to join.

The 1/32 by meng. Fitting issues mostly and really annoying window masking errors. Engine, cockpit and everything else is fine but the hull just go together as planned and as it seems now, it will be too cramped together plus the ammo and engine covers dont look too well

Its on a halt for now, since it got to frustrating, and i realized i should really focus on tank models ^_^ i will finish it someday but not in the near future

Sorry to hear about all the issues, indeed best to lay it away and have fun with other models until the time is right to pick it up again.
