Recommended Posts

more insanity done yesterday......

hand cut and filed, only 35 to go!

but I found this thread:

needs to be a bit narrower, looks good though....for something never to be seen again

people have asked me "why detail parts that won't be seen?"

BECAUSE I CAN, is the short version.

I really like working on these small bits, and hopefully i'll have a bunch of superdetailed small bits that will actually come together for a superdetailed model.(I have a REAL problem finishing stuff)

The idea is the add a cheap photodisplay showing off bits of the build in a loop.

Got my MENG interior kit. (the Porsche set, the henschel set is sold out everywhere)

some useful stuff in there, but also some strange dicisions on how to split parts.

most imprtantly, the ammo racks look good and have the ammo seperate.

Tell us the truth, you just don't want to finish this kit, right?

Great work.

😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣.....

Not really!

It is just that with Liejon Schoot's build, the KT restoration at Full, and allllllll the books, I can't help myself! (Bit of context I was diagnosed with adhd and mild autism last year at 48 years of age....that explained a LOT of things. For modelling I've decided to embrace and enjoy it, I'm more of a journey than a destination person 😉)

Are you going to leave the tracks off and the hull roof open to show this exquisite detail?  Maybe show it as on the assembly

line without all of the obscuring items in place.

 

It's looking great so far no matter how you decide to display it.

Still plugging away at the interior, getting lost in the details and solving the problem of replicating them.....

Work on the RO backrest:

Last pic shows the bolt is too big, going to replace with PE if I can find the right size (0.35-0.4)

The washers were provided by a friend who feeds my obsession....😋
