Steve Scanlon Posted June 7, 2014 Author Share Posted June 7, 2014 The hull is now finished and started on the turret, not sure what I think of the soft plastic rubber for the gun mantlet, enjoying this even though there is a fair bit of tedious building involved, [[[/url] More to come. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators JeroenPeters Posted June 8, 2014 Administrators Share Posted June 8, 2014 Nice going! Looks like some real tedious work involved. Love the tracks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulster Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Though it really extends build time, i.e.- see Paulsters Tiran 5, I really like the what pe adds to a kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Scanlon Posted June 10, 2014 Author Share Posted June 10, 2014 Thanks guys, tedious is the word here though in truth it is worth it, my photo etch work is not as neat as the Tiran but it is sometimes difficult with so much not give in and play with something else.

RalphSarc Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Freaking outstanding work Steve. The hull, tracks, turret and wonderful brass work looks absolutely brilliant! I'm considering building a Tamiya 1/35 German Panther Medium Tank along with a Revell 1/32 P38J in full D-Day dress for the Beaches to Berlin build but still a bit wary of those tracks. I guess I'll see how in goes. Many on LSM have said the Tamiya is a good first time armor build for me. Excited to start it soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Scanlon Posted June 18, 2014 Author Share Posted June 18, 2014 Thanks Ralph, have a go at the tracks, they are not really difficult just a bit tedious and as you say Tamiya usually fall together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
