Col. Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 I'm particularly looking forward to reading your thoughts on this one and watching your progress. It certainly looks to have plenty detail about it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It certainly looks to have plenty detail about it. Thank you. Refinement of the model is the middle stage of the "degradation" of the personality involved in modeling. (the penultimate stage is the conversion to another model and the last one is assembly from scratch). My progress usually depends on what I will be unhappy with when assembling.🙂 The object is interesting, currently collecting photos.

Very gentle casting, better than Takom but some light improvements are needed. I glued the tracks to the rollers and all this is made removable to make painting easier, I will align it when gluing at the end.

Willy Posted May 11, 2023 Author Share Posted May 11, 2023 (edited) A little welding. Edited May 11, 2023 by Willy 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col. Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 Nice neat work. Is the welding a feature of the kit parts or something you've added? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, welds have been added. Also I added detailing on the gun mask. There was no bottom on the side boxes on the turret, I had to close it with plastic. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willy Posted May 30, 2023 Author Share Posted May 30, 2023 (edited) Small work requires great concentration, unfortunately I don't have much time, but the work is moving forward. Assembly is nearing completion, I hope...🙂 Edited May 30, 2023 by Willy 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CliffB Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 This is looking so smart with the PE additions. It will almost be a shame to paint it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willy Posted June 14, 2023 Author Share Posted June 14, 2023 The mounting of one antenna on the turret is higher, the other is lower, but they are the same in height. What's the joke? Maybe someone knows? Meanwhile, very slowly but continue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
