Mig Eater Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 My latest modelling masterpiece, a 1/35 scale Flakpanzer E-100 model kit by Amusing Hobby. I made several changes to the base kit including; replacing the inaccurate plastic gun barrels with metal ones. Also replacing the rather weak plastic suspension springs with custom made metal ones too. The side skirt armour was modified so they can be displayed either on or off the vehicle, I also added a small crane to the side of the turret that would be used by the crew to aid with lifting the side armour on or off. Lastly the most important addition to this model is the obligatory bucket hanging off the rear, which every good tank model should have Took me about four months to complete in all & was a lot of fun, I think I'll make something smaller next tho... 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasper dog Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Now thats impressive! Think it looks better without the sideskirts, in my opinion at least! Stunning piece of work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrancisGL Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 The weathering is great, a vehicle with a very unusual appearance. the camo is perfect, as the comrade has said, what a beast! ... Cheers mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Normally refrain from comments about Paper panzers but I like this 👍 ... Though looks better with the skirts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mig Eater Posted January 30, 2018 Author Share Posted January 30, 2018 Thanks for the replies I've got a stash full of paper panzers so expect to see some more unusual designs from me in the future. Hopefully with a bit more practice (this was my third 1/35 kit BTW) I can cut down the build time or you'll have to wait six months for the next one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
