My first foray into non-aircraft modelling for quite some time. Picked this up last year, and have been building it slowly since then.

Still got a few finishing touches, like painting the string/wire on the crane, as well as the hook, but otherwise it's pretty much there!

You dont need an expensive 'brush to spray camo.
I have got my Iawata that cost about £200 which is a nice tool but I mainly use the one I bought from fleabay for £30. As long as you get one with a 0.3 or 0.2mm needle you will be able to do it :thumb:

FlaKPanzer T-34(r)

Post by daz greenwood » Fri Nov 26, 2010 5:01 pm

Ok another one done!

Ok this is a subject I've always wanted to build.

It was a field modification based on a T-34/76 gun tank, and a field modified turret armed with a 20mm FlaKvierling 38. The turret was made from damaged SdKfz 251 hulls. It was used by the Headquarters Company of Pz Jag Abt 653 in Galicia Russia in mid 1944.

The vehicles fate is unknown.

Painted in Lifecolour Dunkelgelb, Red Brown and OlivGrun.
Anyhow on with the pics:

Thanx for looking.

Post by markmarples » Wed Dec 22, 2010 1:49 pm

hi guys, well when Amazon were selling some stuff off cheap i bought Jamie a falcon which he asked me to light for him, well while watching the snow and thinking about travelling today ive added a few LED's and sanded the blue rear panel and repainted it with transparent Blue, ive added lights to the tub but you can see them that well in the photos and a couple of lights inside that shine through the top and bottom windows, i hope he will like it when he gets home from school

Ive read about these kits but I have never taken the plunge (pun most definitely intended :D ) in doing a sub. I keep looking at the revell 72nd scale Uboat but I just dont know where to put it :(

I look forward to seeing these finished :thumb:

That 1/72nd Revell sub is quite tempting! The only sub I've got to build is the Zvesda 1/350 Kursk :thumb:
