I'll be following too Monica as I'm building the same tank killer ( a bit slower than your bionic woman speed builds )


Is this the new tool Tamiya kit ?

Nope it's... TODAY!! I've picked up my kit from the sorting office, so I'll be starting when I get home. Lots of wheels to get done

 

[monica]

well started this one this morning,


very quick build real,not so meany fiddly bits to slow it down,so had most of the wee,bits on


by 11am starting at 6am,


then off too the model show/comp,swap meet not so far from home,as I did put some aside for it over the last


3 months,a small stash for a stash,


so once home had a kip for an hr or so,then,primed,and base coated and added como,so let dry for a day


then will add the decal,s ,and will be starting o the tracks,


I have done this one in German yellow,and earth brown camo,which will be the 1st of 3 or 4 type ,I have seen


done in this camo style,


still some spattering ,but I can live with it,but will look into getting a new AB,as I do know some people,


don,t like it very much,so I,m sorry if you do see it,and remember the camera is worse than the eye,


well do hope you like my progress so far,


could not find another,JagdTiger,but have a guy keeping an eye out for one,who I get the bulk of my kits from,


Mark,

I think your camo looks better there Moni, tighter without the overspray. You'll have this finished soon

 

[monica]

ta Patrick,much appreciated,so glad you do like it,I did clean the AB,nozzle/needle,with windex after each pass,and just around


were the needle dose come out,and much lower PSI,about 8 to 12, I think so all that did help,


and even retouch up the other Panzer as well, at the same time,


well I did pick up another one today,as most of what was there were tank distorter


will need to think of a base for this one,running out of ideas for setting on them, any think you would like to see ?

 

[papa 695]

Great start Monica I'm watching this, I'm still awaiting the delivery of my Hetzer

 

[monica]

ta Ian,so glad your liking this so far,


will be waiting on your start as well,so will be keeping an eye out for it,


maybe I,will be starting my second one as well,could not get a Jagdtiger today but found some think else nice,

 

[Guest]

Looking good Monica.

 

[monica]

sso glad that your liking this one so far Ralph,its a fun build,but enjoy the camo and weathering the most,

 

[monica]

well I did run into a problem with this one,real don,t know if I missed place or they were not there,


but I did not have any poly caps to fit the wheels,


so after some thinking the only thing I did have handy was some silicon,so I filled the wheel holes,


with it,and pushed on,and let set for a day or so before putting on the track,


have also fitted the skirts and started to added in the fillers,and so on,


unlike me I,m keeping this build quite clean no real battle damage,and more,dirty than rust,


so hoping you do like my progress so far,
