Sarcococca Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 (edited) My second posting here on britmodeller will be my model of the very fine molded Revell kit from 2005! After I was reading the amazing book "Small Scale Armour Modelling " from Alex Clark, I was surprised about the fragile work could be done in braille scale! It took more than 20 years of modelling that I explored this fine scale models! Because I finished this kit last year I will post here few WIP pictures! My decision concerned the ISAF contingent of the Bundeswehr in Afghanistan. Found some nice pictures of the true things in Tankograd Special No. 5031 "GECON-ISAF Desert Camouflage. As additional detailsets I`ve used photoetched parts from Eduard, Extratech and the famous resin wheels of Tracks and Troops: With the friendly aid of former Soldiers who served in Afgha I could detailing my little Fennek with the crew compartment, the engine and small storage place. Cutting out both doors and both hatches at the back, I could scratch build few parts out of plastic profiles and sheets. I hope you enjoy Edited June 2, 2018 by Sarcococca 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul A H Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Ditto that. I have this kit and it's super small, which makes your build all the more impressive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzH Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 That level of detail would be impressive in 1/35 so in 1/72 it's simply outstanding!! Huge respect, level of detail second to none... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
