    SDKFZ 250/3 - ''Greif'' , or possibly not

    I thought Eduard PE to be annoying. Forgot how annoying link and length track was on small tracks. My solution is to have a thin slice of thin plasticard on the furthest inside area of track to allow 4 treads to be placed between rear idler and last wheel at rear of body. can bend the track...

    You know you need a second coffee when ................

    You are happily priming your model and thinking the colour looks a little off , probably just early morning , and eyesight ...... you finish , tidy up , clean airbrush ....... then you check and realise the bottle you put back was the one you wanted to be using.

    Sherman M4A2 '' US Marines'' Academy 13203

    Dragon Smart Kit , Panzer IV ''Tauchpanzer'' , 1/35th Scale

    A work in progress. Small gap between rear plate and body , used milliput to fill it. Dragon instructions are not the clearest for some things and downright wrong on part numbers in a number of sections. So far carpet monster has stolen 2 pieces , which i will spend tomorrow morning hunting for.

    Hope to finish off a few things i started over there. Mostly WW2 and 1/35th scale ( or bigger ) due to age and eyesight.
