Yg Models Posted May 22, 2023 Author Share Posted May 22, 2023 (edited) hk has similar law, but blackdog not likes common japanese model kits in shop, mobile / TV in mall or food in supermarket that have proper importer to provide this service. And i figure this out during cutting the runners, so hard to prove it was blackdog packing problem. Also, hobbyeasy might give me missing parts, but can't help with low QC. Hence, i will leave it at the corner until i have mood ...😑 a nice packing of resin kit from mainland/taiwan brand for your reference. you could see how much effort they put on product (blackdog in opposite direction...) 3 hours ago, sardaukar said: what colour/brand did you use for the panzer grey? main colors for Urban Panzer are AV game color series: 72.047 (wolf grey), 72.043 (Beasty Brown). however, i washed the tank with sepia or black before drybrushing wolf grey, therefore the field blue is more rich. 😉 Edited May 22, 2023 by Yg Models 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sardaukar Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 I understand the situation on the resin stuff, it could sit in my stash for a year or two before I discover it's flaws and then sit in a box for a year or two longer until I have the mood to deal with it too. 😬 that's a very light grey, will try something similar, thanks.

echen Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 I've had some Blackdog stowage since 2018. It will be ideal for fitting to tanks that have been near shell bursts - full of holes! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yg Models Posted June 2, 2023 Author Share Posted June 2, 2023 (edited) Walking King Tiger 🤪 full of bubbles on chassis/turret, parts not fit, so don't know the angles of leg, hence can't set all four legs "touch ground" 🤬 Edited June 2, 2023 by Yg Models 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Resin kits like this are for the advanced modeller 😜, in other words they are a pain in the bum. The barrel looks not bad its often the first thing to be warped.

Ive found that vallejo plastic putty doesn't grip too well and comes off easily, I think I'd use CA if I had to, on top of a filler powder as long as you can sand it flat.

Yg Models Posted July 6, 2023 Author Share Posted July 6, 2023 agree, AV putty not up to standard, therefore i am using similar mainland stuff which call 3 Zero. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
