Ozzy Posted January 28, 2018 Author Share Posted January 28, 2018 This weekends activities, i made a start on putting together the tracks, I treated myself to a new drill bit. Unfortunately it got stuck, I need to get it out apart from that they fit together nicely. I also did one side of the sun shield brackets, I went for super glue rather than solder as there is a bit more to add on the other side. I also hand painted the camouflage scheme. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Davey, fair one a little slacking on my part, ive been playing soldiers on Salisbury plain for the past 2 weeks hence the lack of progress. I will be able to focus on my Sherman now through till April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind regards, Stix Thanks Stix, the ones I have put together move really well, only need to add 79 for one side. If the price is right I may have to get some for my Panzer IV. 2 hours ago, Sgt.Squarehead said: How are the thumbs holding up?

Thanks John, I'm pleased with the outcome, I thought the brackets that fix to the side of the hull were going to be a pain. But all fitted on without any trouble, it's the most etch I've every done on a model to date. Looking forward to the one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzy Posted February 9, 2018 Author Share Posted February 9, 2018 With the tracks an enduring project, I thought I would focus on the crew. I have used a couple of Miniart sets, and over the weekend will populate the tank crew. My progress so far. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
