Hi all!
Since finishing the previously started models was impossible, I had to start another one. And oddly enough, this is not the first time this has happened...
So, at this time It is Hetzer from Takom:About the kit
Pros: This kit has no interior and is pretty basic. All the pieces fit together perfectly so far...
Cons: The plastic is very soft and elastic, carving it is a real pain!I want to make this Hetzer look seriously beat up, so I started with the fun and most enjoyable - destroying the model's well-made and accurate parts.
One wheel damaged by an explosion:
Damaged front fender:
The damaged rear left fender and toolbox:
I decided to make the right rear fender heavily battered. To do this I glued on a few pieces of excess plastic:
Carving the damages. Beginning:
The right fender is finished :
The same right fender from another side:
I added a more raised texture to the casted parts and front panel and glued a number. The numbers from the Tamiya sprue label:

That's OK Vytautas. I'm a masochist anyway. Beautiful job you've done on that box. Great work.
Thanks, John

Your Stug is looking great 👍
Vytautas
P.S. Small notice: I think it's unfair that the interior of tanks is usually much more interesting than the exterior. It would be nice if the tank could be turned inside out, like a sock- 7

Hmm... is there really any need to rush so much? Are you sure?

This time did not used any primer.
Yes, of course, the primer is evil!
The devil was very jealous of the modelers for their beautiful models and wanted to punish them. To do this, he came up with a very insidious plan - he created a primer that hides all the beautiful and small details that the model makers create on the modelsVytautas

I do hope you're not doing this with the intention of actually completing the Kubelwagen .... 🤣
Of course not! How can you think so badly? How could you doubt me?

Hi all,
You probably already thought that you had finally gotten rid of this construction project, which proceeded like in a very slow-motion movie, but you were out of luck. I promise to continue to torture you in the future. And these are not empty threats, look at this, it's five-month my activity
I finished making boxes for Li.Spr.80.
The frames of the boxes are made from aluminum tin from wine cork.
The black stains look terrible, they are from black CA glue, but I hope after painting, they won't be seen.Vytautas

Looks really great!
I agree with @Stef N.:

I think this phrase best describes the model

Looks really great!
Especially all the small details - smoke grenades, cables, wires, locks on drawers, etc. Painting and weathering are also excellent.On Saturday author of this model and I were drinking coffee, and this tank was on the table, so I had the great pleasure of examining it in detail.
Since I was lucky enough to see this model live, I can say that it really looks great, much better than in the photosVytautas

Finally!
The fighter looks like a real fighter!
Battered, dirty, with peeling paint. It is obvious that he made hundreds of sorties. It looks very realistic, I have not seen such a convincing fighter model for a long time.
Congratulations!

They're not as glacial as mine!🥴
We could both be in the running for a prize echen - 'And the winner of the slowest build of the decade competition goes to....'
Wait a minute, why only both? Do not think that this prize will be so easy for you to get, I am more than a serious competitor!
The wheel really looks amazing, and you have chosen the vehicle to build very well. And it could have been much worse...
