discussion Papa695s Emhar 1/35 MkIV Male Tank

[papa 695]

Going to start this kit, I got it part started, and not in very good condition. So it will be a knocked out diorama, ( very similar to uncle night shifts rendition ).

Not a bad kit, that. Certainly not up to today’s standards, but it will look good when finished. Those tracks are awful, though … Poor fit and they look anything but convincing once on. It’ll be interesting to see what you make of it

Just what the Dr. ordered for a knocked out tank Diorama..........I'm next to Scottie and Jakko, bring it on Ian.:thumb2:

Ian

I've just watched the last of Martin's vids on his knocked out Mk IV Dio. Looking forward to seeing this come together.

Interesting ... looking forward to the dio. I've got a set of Tamiya Brit Infantry you're welcome to - I'm not going to use them!

Careful with that asbestos tape

 

[grumpa]

Great idea for a great model Ian, I also built the same tank from EMHAR, only the female version.
She got knocked out too, poor thing.

Jim.

 

[Tim Marlow]

Nice start on the land ship!

 

[papa 695]

Ok I’ve started to work on the damage, but I found out that you could see inside the tank. So I’ve also started to make a rough interior.

Funny how one thing leads to another and before you know it "Poof.".........whole different model. Looking good and I expect this is going to add a Ton more interest to an already interesting build.:thumb2:

To be honest, on here that could sum up most members' modelling journeys.....I fancy making a model kit, will just by a few paints and before you know it you have a dedicated room, a stash most model shops would be proud of and 500 different paints.... And that's just the shades of green.... :smiling5: :smiling5:

That should have been 500....

I can echo Jakko, about the tracks - even on a complete model they're rubbish - how are you going to show the wrecked ones?
