Redcoat2966 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 I think you need to reduce the file size when uploading to a hosting site.....I do that now and it works just fine...... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vytautas Posted November 2, 2020 Author Share Posted November 2, 2020 (edited) Yes, I know about the problem with images. I use scalemates.com for photo hosting, and I accidentally deleted my photo folder there. Now I'm restoring little by little. 6 hours ago, Longbow said: Any chance of a step-by-step instructions the carving ? OK, I will try...

vytautas Posted November 18, 2020 Author Share Posted November 18, 2020 I warn everyone: take your time, otherwise, you will have problems! Only a month has passed, and I have already made a new first-aid kit (the original on the right)! I suspect that I am working too fast, at this rate I will finish the model in ten years. What will I do then? This is a very serious problem! Probably need to slow down Vytautas 3 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
APA Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Lovely bit of work there vytautas. Thats a model in itself! If it scratch or a kit? The leather and buckle strap is excellent. A 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vytautas Posted November 18, 2020 Author Share Posted November 18, 2020 Thank for the kind words! 43 minutes ago, APA said: it scratch or a kit? I made first aid kit from scratch. I made it from a plastic plate. Sides of 0.3 mm, top 0.5 mm. I drill and cut holes for the locks and handle on the sides, and glued plastic plates on the inside, which are the bottom of the holes. I cut and glued small pieces from the 0.3 mm plate into the lock holes. When gluing the hole in the handle, I used a lot of glue and squeezed the plates hard. The plastic melted from the glue, and the excess plastic formed a handle. I made a belt from Tamiya tape, a buckle of 0.2 mm copper wire. Painted with acrylic Tamiya.

Bullbasket Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Sometimes, it's the small items on a model that grab my attention. That first aid box is a vast improvement over the kit item. Great work Vytautas. John. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have done a lot more than me in certain areas, note the engine bay you wont be able to see much of it when everything is installed, the grille was a rather compromised design ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am want to leave the left engine hatch open so that part of the engine can be seen. So that the commander's seat does not interfere, I will make it folded into the fighting compartment.

vytautas Posted November 22, 2020 Author Share Posted November 22, 2020 Not a big leap forward, but not back... I made a few missing parts from scratch: the first aid kit mounting bracket, dashboard, and cable. Vytautas 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
