I'm a happy guy today, to you it might be nothing special, but today I received three rattle cans of Tamiya fine primer. Since last year it has been simply impossible to let the stuff being sent to my little island, due to security changes in our small airplanes the mail uses.
Somehow these three cans made it through, via ship. It would be easy If you could tell in advance, that spray cans should be shipped, but there is no way of choosing.Cheers Rob
It's great stuff Rob, I hate to write this but the local hobby lobby has these in stock all the time.
I couldn't imagine not being able to get when needed.

Yes valid question.
I was going to hit it first with Tamiya Primer to seal them up.

Truth be told I would like to paint the tire Tamiya Rubber and stretch over a pre-painted rim.
No weathering on the tire.

If one was to paint the rim first and then stretch the tire over it to fit, will the paint crack on the tire?
Should you or can you primer these things before attempting?
Thanks,
Ryan

I believe they were sold.
The new buyer still sells them, but I can't recall the name.

This is the latest build, which I am building for someone, some of the details were specified by them...so, this will not be “correct” BOB Mk.II. I am using the new Revell 1/32 Iron Maiden edition Spitfire. The only extras will be the G-factor gear and an acrylic rod.
I still have my teenage poster of this in my garage.
It's funny to take in the art work here, from the 78' pinto rust barnacle to the shell casing that somehow left the barrel of the gun intact.
Of course none of that I noticed as a young lad, I didn't even like Iron Maiden...just bought it for the Spitfire imagery.

I have found the Model Air Aluminum really dry-brushes well. I used it here over NATO or Rubber Black base coat.

Rob you might give it a wash and then tidy it up with a lighter metal color drybrush.
It works great to lift detail.

For those digging into this kit, it appears the orientation on the side shutters (vents?) are wrong. Not sure if the directions have you put the piece in the wrong way or what.
I was first tipped off on the error when viewing a build by Zaloga, he scratched them facing the other way around. If I had a choice between Hobby Boss research or Steve Zaloga research i'm going with the latter!
Low and behold here is a shot I found on Flickr.

You have been warned.
Easy fix BTW.

A nice little Toldi tank.
I thin I buggered the side shutters though, too low.

Ho-lee chit!!
The only drawback I can see to the 1/16 and 1/6 tanks is that the kits all seem to be made for R/C, which makes them cost more. I would like a 1/16 one that is just a static kit.
Trumpeter have a good foundation with the Panzer IV for other vehicle mods etc.
Panda have a great base for Hetzer and other 38t derivatives.
A proper Trumpeter Sherman family would be well received i'm sure.
