It’s (another) stalled project at the moment. My excuse is I want more info (I really really want that book!) but the truth is my homemade Zim isn’t up to scratch and needs more practice. I’ve just bought the Gahleri quiet air compressor so I don’t have the noise as an excuse anymore to not break out the airbrush so I’ll have to get cracking again. I have a JP, Tiger II, Panzer III M and Cromwell all waiting for primer and I won’t go in to how many flying things are waiting paint too. I am on M-L, will have another look. I keep getting distracted with all the other AFV goodness over there!

I was completely unaware of this, so thank you for the question and the answers, extremely interesting indeed!

I think that was Bill Bellamy’s Troop Leader.

Sadly nothing in my own collection yet, but this may be of help: https://www.armedconflicts.com/Panzerbefehlswagen-III-Ausf-K-t39367

Many sources claim that it had a Pz.Kpfw.IV Ausf. F2 turret. I’ll dig through my library and see if there is anything in there.

Goodness me, stunning all round!

Goodness me, you guys are awesome, thank you for sharing!

Not just me then! Good luck!

This chap got it to fit nicely by the looks of it. https://www.scalemates.com/profiles/mate.php?id=112778&p=albums&album=116631 Not to in to the wildcat, but folded wings out of the box? I’ll take it!

I don’t know much about Wellingtons nor Coastal Command, there are a few images like https://www.asisbiz.com/il2/Wellington/Coastal-Cmd/pages/Vickers-Wellington-VIII-RAAF-458Sqn-based-at-Foggia-Italy-Jan-1944-IWM-01.html that seems to show light internal doors.

Very cool. I wouldn’t say you’re over 25% personally, tracks to do, tools and bits and bobs to go on, painting, weathering, tons left to do 😉

Looking great. Nice job on the tools too, the wood colour looks very realistic.

I look forwarded to this one too. I have 2 in the stash 😎 I have their workable tracks too, very fragile, be warned!

Procrastinating, mostly…

What’s your plan for that? Do you have a cylinder to bend it round or are you using the kit parts as a mould? Looking great, I’d use the tracks that came in the box personally, they’ll look good when done even if tedious to build.
