RougeTrooper Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 So after my recent Firefly build I decided to go for another newer moulding kit. Lovely kit goes together well without any issues, such a dream building these as apposed to the vintage classics. Where most of your time is dealing with lots of flash because of the age of the mouldings.Shame about my airbrush techniques, I'm fairly pleased with the out come as it's been a great kit for practising on.

Kenneth ONeill Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Nice. Oh and "rough results" on Wehrmacht armour with green and brown over dunkelgelb camouflage are quite acceptable since the green and brown were normally poster paints mixed from solids by the units and applied in the field, using field expedient techniques, which might be spray guns, but could also be mops or yard brushes.

Topcat_Ern Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 And instead of throwing away the "all in one tracks" why not throw away the wheels and rubber tracks on the Panther kit and replace. Bit wide for this kit but easily trimmed and can adjust out that saggy suspension. Rough proof of concept.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SP1707822516 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Are there any options to have the turret hatch open on this kit, or is it all moulded in one piece ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peebeep Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Are there any options to have the turret hatch open on this kit, or is it all moulded in one piece ? Everything is zipped up. Bear in mind this and the Sherman were designed for easy assembly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for your reply 👍🏻 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topcat_Ern Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 A couple of 3D printed parts and paint job it is feasible. Couldn't thin the tracks as I had glued them but for the future....Ern Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
