Operation Husky, 1943, Takom M31, 1/35th scale...a refugee from a Group Build


Recommended Posts

Here is my WiP.  The first couple of pages were from the M3 Group Build last summer that I wasn't able to complete.  Many thanks to @PlaStix for the migration over here.

 

This is a very fine kit, with loads of detail and well engineered so it is actually quite easy to build.  I had a lot of other things going on so I took my time, which is good too.  No sense rushing this one.  A Blitzbuild this is not!  Paints were a mix of Tamiya, Vallejo Air, Vallejo...extra after market bits from Black Dog and MiniArt.  Weathering aspects from AK and Abteilung.  I am new to the 'dust' weathering powders, so I will work on them.  Advice please... I can see how they really do add a level of realism to the model.  Anyway, the WiP has all of this.  Here are some images from the back terrace...

This is Eek.  Not sure of gender.  Their sibling, aka 'Meek', is also a tuxedo, as is Big Mama.  They are feral and live in the small jungle behind my house.  I feed them.  They are very curious.

And the new set of shelves for ongoing 1/35th scale vehicles.  Two so far...
