  1. Always welcome Further construction In some parts the connection between the sprue and part is much too thick (my opinion) This simplifies the injection molding to the parts during production. But there's more cleanup to do for the modeller ready for painting base color wheel-track part ready for assembly Thanks for following
  2. If the google translater is correct, then i yhink you mean these (arrow) My poor knowlidge of english 😉 you need : a needle, rope, patience and time.
  3. Indeed also during the various Israel Arab wars these had "good" results (wikipedia) Yep, a legit Chinese company and the kits are usually of good quality
  4. Next model is the SAM 6 from the Chinese manufacturer Trumpeter. SA 6 Gainful is the NATO nickname. The official Russian name is 2K12 "Kub". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2K12_Kub Made in China... This is not piracy or lower quality. On the contrary, this box is a pleasant surprise. Neatly packaged and nice molded parts Wheels and tracks in one part and very well detailed orderly plan Building the chassis / hull
  5. Nice work. Planking,garboard.. Look at my Pelican build, i think from post 38 and further on.
  6. Indeed. The Vickers idea can be considered a distant ancestor of the M2, M3 and later M5 family Mirage has a whole family http://www.mirage-hobby.com.pl/MirageHobby-AFV-72 https://henk.fox3000.com/Mirage.htm
  7. These Vickers (and derivative) models were in service in many different countries with many variations and modifications.
  8. Tie the sails to the yards, attempt 3.. I didn't like attempt 2. So did everything again for the 3rd and "last" time. Different rope and fewer attachments to the yard. Main and fore sail 2 times round yard as the rest 1 time. The result is a simplified version of the example in the Mary Rose book. working method : Knot on the sail Rope around the yard Knot on the yard (I worked with a series of 5) CA gel ont the (yard) knot. And the rope ends are held down cut off Result, By pushing the rope ends down until the CA gel has cured, hang these neatly towards the deck Some work in progress pictures All ready Thanks for folowing,comments and likes.
  9. So it is true that people who are retired have little free time for themselves 😉 Very nice work on the model and the warehouse.
  10. At home 🙂 Info found in "German railroad guns" (squadron/signal NO.15) The base color would be Reichsbahn Grey. But is this much different from the panzer grey? Dont now.
  11. I think I have some info about painting I'll look for it this evening. I'm at work now ☹️
