Cheers John, you wouldn’t of said neat earlier... I had to tidy up as I made a hell of a mess with the glue down one side and left a dirty great finger print on it too :smiling5: That’s not superglue in the bag. It’s actually a weird glue from China that Rochelle’s uses for the model...- Si Benson

Si B’s 1/35 Takom blitz Pz III Ausf M
i got it through Amazon, other online department stores are available, back in 2015. I had a check to see if they still had them but alas out of stock... I had a quick google for it elsewhere but drew a blank. It cost £95 back then but its well made and will outlive me twice over.- Si Benson

Fear not mate, i can make a proper mess when I’m in the flow!! I just don’t have enough space to spread out my stuff... Cosford is a fair old trek for me, living down here on the south coast....I’m not tech savvy but I’ll have a go at emailing you some of the cakes if you like ;):smiling5:- Si Benson

Si B’s 1/35 Takom blitz Pz III Ausf M
Hi chaps , Some more of the equipment added to the fenders as well as the spaced frontal armour, bow gun etc. I jumped the steps adding the schürzen brackets, I’ll add them once I’m closer to finishing or I’ll just break them off. Next few steps concentrate on the turret. Thanks for looking- Si Benson

A massive thank you for all the likes, comments and banter along the way on this one....very much appreciated I’ve weathered and added the screen above the transmission compartment and weathered the turret a little. I’m going to leave it for now and it will get a simple base at another time...- Si Benson

It was 13yrs old when I got it, I drove it for 11 yrs and sold it for £500 back in 2017. the guy wanted the running gear to put in a camper! Very reliable car but a bit juicy. The grip on her...- Si Benson

Si B’s 1/35 Takom blitz Pz III Ausf M
With the T-34 pretty much done, I wanted something super simple to get my teeth into and this seemed to fit the bill nicely. Nice and simple with no interior and the only metal parts are the schürzen. Here is a review of the kit. Got started on the wheels and suspension, then thought about...- Si Benson

Afternoon, Been pecking away with the weathering on the T34. Some more strategic muck & dust, painted up the equipment and weathered it in. The turret still needs weathering and I have a few small items to add to give a bit more interest. Normally I have started to loose interest...- Si Benson

Cheers Andrew :thumb2: The Acrylic mud I’ve used here was this stuff from Vallejo.... I mixed some of this with a pinch of saw dust and a pinch of different length static grass to add extra texture and a little water to make it easier to apply. Once it has dried you can dust wiith pigments...- Si Benson

I’ve had enamel...- Si Benson
