[Guest]

Cheers buddy thought you`d say that

 

[Wong Ryan]

Nice one Aaron, If I send you mine can you do them for me

Yeah...i will send you mine too...these tracks are real pain...

 

[monica]

thats a winner Aaron,great idea,and looks good,

 

[aaron]

Thanks guys, I'm going to start on the crinoline and upper hull because the tracks took like 4 hours with clipping and cleaning then assembly and I don't want to get tired of this model. There are some really nice p.e parts that I want to get stuck into.

 

[Guest]

Looking good so far bud.

 

[aaron]

Cheers Chris mate.

I understand about Indy links. I had a nightmare doing dragons two piece kettenkrad tracks, luckily the kettenkrad I have now has dragons ds tracks.

Got sprue gates?

Part 6 and 7 of the 7 part jack. Not even the worst of the large gates to deal with. Funny enough I'm still having a blast with this build.

[tanktrack]

you cleaver lad that is a good trick to sort out the link problems , what size is the barrel ? it looks like a pea shooter

 

[aaron]

Cheers Steve, the main gun is a 7.92 mm Mauser. Pretty much a pea shooter mate. It is moulded really bad too but I'll drill it out and keep on. Thanks for stopping by.

Nice build.....have you painted and weathered it yet? I can't wait to see what you come up with in this scale.

No sir, the pics were taken this morning. The plan is to copy the box art and do panzer grey, I would love to do it in dunkelgelb with camo but nope...box art it is.
