  1. As I mentioned in Chat, I've decided to get off'f my derriere and actually build something for a change. Not only that, I intend to finish this one! I have to do this because there is absolutely no room left in the Cupboard of Shame. I've half made up my mind to commit to entering a build in every remaining GB this year, which will be quite a feat for me. I considered the one I've chosen for this GB for the Gollden Years GB but as it is such a good fit here I felt I might as well do it now (as Arnie would say). Besides, it's not like I don't have anything else for the GYGB . Given the time limit this will be OOB and only lightly weathered - no Spanish School here. So, to start with, here is the obligatory sprue shot Not much flash considering its vintage (1975) although there are lots of seam lines and the sprue gates look horrendous in places. Obviously, detail is a bit soft by modern standards but I imagine this was quite a well received kit in its day. Time to get stuck in. The first session produced this The driver was held in place by a blue-tac cushion whle I sorted his arms out. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the fit. The layout of the parts on the sprues, by contrast, is an absolute dog's breakfast - plenty of picking them up and putting them down as I hunt for the right part. Another session later gave this Ready for some paint! TTFN Andy M.
  2. Hiya. Yes - it is another Tamiya's golden oldie. After Sd.Kfz.222 and Panzer II F/G (soon to be presented in RFI section) i decided to have a go with another one. I really like those old ones. They're fun to build, really eye-catching and cheap models. If something goes wrong - well, you just buy another one. Great for learning new techniques. This time it is a Sd.Kfz. 250/3. I'm gonna do it in Afrika painting scheme, but it is not going to be famous "Greif" from which Erwin Rommel himself used to command. I decided to have a go with some rusty/burny techniques. We'll see what happens. Here's what i got so far. Boxart's pretty nice. Model has been manufactured in 1979. And the sprues... I like the tracks. They're not vinyl ones... Soldats and Rommel - I'm not gonna use these... Engine and insides. Interior is quite fully represented, as it's really open and visible. And the hull. OK, time for glue. The front suspension. Lower hull. It is detailed nicely. Rear side. Front suspension mounted. Still lots to go on this one. But first we're gonna see, what's cooking inside. That's gearbox and it's surroundings. Fitting is really great. Absolutely no problems. Although some parts need to have a quick date with sanding paper. Engine. Some seams needed to be removed. But the plastic is really soft, so I'm talking few quick moves. Fitting test with the rest of the floor... ...and the engine. Aaaand the overview with an upper hull. That is it. Seems like a fun build. I'll try not to ruin it Enjoy. Dawid
