    Tamiya 1/35 Panther

    My 1/35 Tamiya Panther and second addition to the new BAF armor collection is complete. Just a whole lot of fun and comes highly recommended. Thanks for following along.
  2. Let the new airbrush practicing begin. I took Bill Christo suggestion and changed the needle size to 0.45mm so now it’s fiddling with air pressure and thinning mixtures. First impressions of the Harder & Steenbeck is the trigger mechanism is way different than the Iwata requiring my finger to learn a new motor skill. Remember I’ve been using an Iwata Neo and Iwata Eclipes since 2013 so there will be a little learning curve!!
  3. I purchased this kit because it was the closest Stug to the one at the Australian Tank Museum that they just restored. I enjoy the Work Shop Wednesday videos on YouTube.
  4. Selling my house presents to myself!!! After painting well over 150 scale model kits since 2013 my trusting Iwata Airbrush was starting to show its age so I decided to really step up my painting game by purchasing a Harder & Steenbeck Evolution 2024 CRplus Airbrush which is an absolute thing of beauty!! Plus I’m looking forward to building the Stug and Churchill!
  5. Hubert we absolutely enjoyed our Viking River Cruise aboard the Torgil. The staff, the food, the scenery, wine country, the many locks, the small down etc. We’d definitely enjoy spending more time in Portugal and Porto. We said over dinner last night that if we moved abroad we’d learn Portuguese and head straight to Porto!!!
  6. Not sure I understood step 6 instructions concerning the correct way to install the idler wheels. Luckily the kit come with a few extra plastic track links which I added to the rubber tracks to make them fit. Painting, weather and a splash of mud will hide my error!!
  7. We absolutely did! While Lisbon was beautiful Porto was stunningly breathtaking taking. We roamed the street day and night for three days and totally enjoyed ourselves. We traveled on a Viking River Cruise all the way to the Portuguese/Spanish borders. we particularly enjoyed the four locks plus all the grapevine farms along the way.
