diablo rsv Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 You need to get yourself a little display cabinet, it would be a shame to let them gather dust. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being Andy wouldn't have surprised me either, cars, afvs, suggestion of boats so why not buses too! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanmac Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Hi Looking good and done so quickly. Makes me feel terrible having it sat there unmade and what it could look like when done. Glad it went to a model builder and not a model collector 👍 Top job. Looking forward to seeing Panzer III built. Alan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bullbasket Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Well, that was a bit of a surprise. I looked for this in the RFI forum, but it wasn't there. Still, I suppose that you do have to eat and sleep. Anyway, the paintwork does look nice and even. John. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy J Posted February 7, 2021 Author Share Posted February 7, 2021 So no progress on the build I'm afraid due to work commitments, but I have a question regarding the single link tracks 🤔. These will be my first attempt at single link tracks so I'm not sure what is the best way to approach the task of building them up and fitting them to the wheels, so I would appreciate any advice and help i can get from anyone out there 🙂👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy J Posted February 8, 2021 Author Share Posted February 8, 2021 So I managed to grab a couple of hours after work today and I've primed all the wheels ready for paint and added a wash to the lower hull to bring out some of the moulded details. Although most of this work will be hidden later on in the build i thought it might be worthwhile if only to see what effect i can create. Off work for a couple of days now so hopefully i can get a move on and make up for lost time. Here's a couple of pics of today's progress nothing major but a step in the right direction imo Thanks for looking back soon 🙂👍 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
