Simply mind-blowing Scottie. Top, top modelling on display.

Very well done indeed.

Andrew

Bloody marvellous Scottie….

Always an eye opener looking at you model builds, great stuff.

Andy.

Hi Scottie
Stunning is an understatement. Very few can manage pe tool clamps that work and I reckon it would be pointless anyway.
Jim

Bet your glad that's over mate! LOL

Great work with the PE

Gentlemen thank you very much for the very kind comments. It is humbling to receive such praise from guys of your calibre.

 

[scottie3158]

Outstanding.

Thank you Paul

That's one fantastic Pz 111 Paul, stunning details.

All good Scottie.........love the aluminum tray, where do you find it that thickness? Looks thicker than foil. :thumb2:

Rick,
I can't remember where I got them but I have a few small sheets of various thicknesses.

Very nice, and a good save on the part that went AWOL

For aluminium sheet, I have a couple of used printer’s offset plates that someone once gave me, ages ago. I suppose he got them by asking a printer for used plates?

When we see builds from Paul showing the detail like this we see the photo's. I'm lucky enough to see them in the flesh at local shows, and they are something else. Nice one mate, keep it up .

Never done a Pz III before personally..... And after seeing this developing,I don't think I'll bother!!
Seriously though Scottie, I've just had a good old catch up with this and,as usual with your threads, thoroughly enjoyed it mate
Lovely stuff to look at and follow!

Ok Bro, so you are at it again......Me likes.....Me likes a whole bunch Paul. Never built a Pz. III to the end. I have the ancient Tamiya kit 3/4 done and it won't get finished in this lifetime. So I'm all in for yours to see how one should really look like. Drive on Sir and my sunglasses are polarized against all that wonderful bling you're using. No worries there....................Are the rabble hungry again??? Or are they chilled???

Prost

Allen,
Good to see you my friend, I like the panzer lll for me it has a bit more character than the Tigers and Panthers. Yeah there is a bit of bling lol.
Thank you for your concern but the rabble are fed and watered lol.

 

[scottie3158]

I have started on the turret and a bit confused there appears to be lots of location points in the turret interior but nothing to attach the turret ring is the same. Not overly concerned as you cannot see a lot when it is assembled even with the hatches open.



I might if I can find any decent pics add some of the bigger internal fittings. I have added a few things and some bling, but not sure if that is enough.



If anyone can point me in the right direction as to pictures of the turret roof I would be grateful

cheers
Scottie

I have just found the reason why RFM do a kit with full interior that are not included in this kit.

 

[scottie3158]

I had a look at Scalemates at the interior version and downloaded the instructions so I have plenty of reference pics. Just need the patience and skill to make them lol.

I am sure you'll be able to knock up a convincing interior.

Thanks Bob glad you have faith in me.

As long as the main bits are there that's all I want.

This is certainly a part of a thread that was just designed for innuendo ...
