Kris B Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Hi, As you can see in the title this is the old Emhar model. I have just build it before all the super models of Whippet comes to the market. I have used the Airwaves PE for ventilation grills and some other bits, Friulmodel tracks, and some scratch as: MG from needles, stowage boxes,, mud guard, grab handles. Add some nuts and rivets. Well, that's what I achieved: 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gremlin56 Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Very nice Chris,looks like true battle weary veteran. The mud flap on the right hand side is a very good detail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Nice job of a "challenging" kit there Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersonic Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Beautiful work Chris that proves someone with your skills always creates a beauty no matter what quality the base kit has! The Whippet with it's archaic aesthetics is one of my All-Time favourite Tank designs and one day i'll build one myself, though i will choose the newer Meng kit and will be happy if mine turns out as nearly as good as yours.....

FrancisGL Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 One of the best Whippet I've seen in the forum, superb in all aspects, I particularly like the gravel on the lower sides, very, very authentic. Good Job, cheers Kris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackMax12 Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Great job Chris. It may be an old kit but it's just as good as the new Meng and Takom versions. Your weathering is superb and I like the fender on the right, adds some more character. Your mgs turned out great and the Mausers or whatever in the storage bin are a nice touch.

Buzby061 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Very nice indeed. I'd never have guessed it was the Emhar kit. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire31 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Just goes to show that you don't need the latest and the greatest kit to create a superb model. 'Shrunk reality' is what comes into my mind. Very impressed… Regarding the original, doesn't it seem a lot of machinery for carrying just a quartet of fine calibre MG:s? Kind regards, Joachim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind regards, Joachim I've never actually digg the history of that tank, but I think it was used as reconnaissance vehicle. Just light and fast. But I hope there is here enough people with proper knowledge who can help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
