  1. I would recommed using MASTON PLASTIC primer with this product. It makes painting the main color easier.
  2. From a rattle can. For first i used TS-46 light sand. But this is quite expensive and only 100 ml net volume. I used one can to suspension arms and wheels. I calculated that i would buy 4-5 more of these😬. I noticed one automotive paint called maston camouflage ral 1001 beige ultra matt. It is almost same color. 95% people wouldn't know the difference if they saw colors side by side🧐. This cost much less and it is 400 ml net volume. Sprays better and do not smell as bad.
  3. I am making new "slat armor" to engine exhaust. Stock parts are too thick. I used brass sheet and tamiya plastic rod and super glue. This is not gonna be the most beautiful part. Pro builder would have used solder and brass pipe + jig. But then again real pictures show that this part gets easily damaged anyway.
  4. Another cool idea was to glue one small piece from every box art and create collage...I might do that for the sides🧐
  5. Lots of detail was missing in this box. Added meng nuts and bolts.
  6. Got this ikea moppe box from my spouse. I used abrams box art to cover this unpainted plain looking box. And that handle came from that same 1/16 abrams box too😄. Just need to attach it.
  7. Thanks for info. I will look into it.
  8. Really good fit. Instructions wants you glue exhaust last. That not true. You can glue back half first.
  9. Yes. You are absolutely right. Top half will cover most of the tracks. So no need for adjustment.
  10. Test fitting tracks. Maybe too loose? And needs more dust effect. 🧐
  11. Or this way one can repair if track pin is damaged in box. There were few track pins which were seriously warped, lyckily not broken.
  12. Most of tracks weathered and varnish on. I made one track pin removable for easier removal if necessary.
  13. Looking really good. a blank canvas for weathering🙂👍
  14. 😃Merry Christmas!
  15. Merry Christmas to all🎅!
  16. Thank you for kind words 🙂. I will try to treat every piece and panel as separate item for weathering. Hopefully I can continue this soon. Merry Christmas to you🎅.
  17. +1👍
  18. Front suspension unit. There is interconnecting link between 1. and 2. wheel. Maybe it used to compensate track tension when 2. wheel hits bump thus 1. wheel creates more tension? Test fitting engine deck parts.
  19. Nice finds. I noticed this gun barrel tool from youtube video. Please share info how good it is. Is this handle bending tool step in 1 mm increments?
  20. my condolences also 😭. Our cat is also 20 or maybe even more...so I hope he will be with us for a few more years...🐱
  21. engine grille/exhaust. I will be adding slats later.
  22. Thanks! Hopefully i can replicate this same look to upper hull also🙂
