Maus super tank Dragon kit

[razzie43]

Hello all,i just start back on my hobby since last summer.

sometimes i forgot those simple things how to create a weathering on it.

Here is my project :

The dragon kit n°6007 scale 1/35 

 

 

The Book i buy cost me more then the kit i have.

 

 

Inside the box : 

 

 

First i start with my drill : 

 

 

 

Use some Tamiya grey putty  : 

 

 

After a red primer i use the sponge technique with some other colors of rusty weatering! :

 

 

Dragon forgot some other holes :

 

 

Then i see another strange build of dragon,so i fix it with "milliput" 

 

 

The turret of the beast...first try out...

 

 

 

hairspray technique :

 

 

some minutes later : 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I start with the 48 wheels in weathering...

You have to love a Maus... it's mandatory My preference would be to reduce that side texture a little, but it still looks grand

@Kris B Those photo's u have didnt see it yet.

Not in my book...i have one with a forest and some houses around.

Thank you Dave!!

 

Update almost the wheels and i notice that the last version of the maus the wheels are not flat.

But with 8 holes inside,that was for a reason.

I got this kit (6007) on eBay for a steal, but my god, what a building project it is proving to be. 

 

my kit, at least, has a ton of flash all the way around  the edges on most of the important parts. 

 

At least seeing your completed build gives me faith that a great build will come from the hard work. thanks for sharing!

The kneeling figure is from the Tamiya Sd.Kfz 251/1 isn't it.

Superb build. Kudos.

Wow. Awesome. I just. Built a 1/100 Maus, and will be painting soon. 

 

Any chance of a photo with a ruler for scale?  Ta.
