Jagdpanzer 38(t) by Baker - Starr - 1/72 Finished

[Baker]

While I'm working on the treenails in the hull of my Mary Rose . It's time for some variety.
So now  some military models. We build the 38t Hetzer Starr from Attack hobby kits. Not the most fitting and detailed model, but a somewhat exotic Hetzer.

 

General info about the Hetzer  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hetzer

And the "Starr" variant   https://www.armedconflicts.com/Jagdpanzer-38-t-Starr-t12128

 

Box, parts and plan

Building the chassis,  this wasn't actually that simple, there was nothing that fits.

Cleaning and drilling the wheels

All is ready to apply the tracks ( Only the idler wheels could be mounted without fitting and cutting )

( with a Airfix Matilda hegdehog almost finnished)

Great to see another military model Patrick. Looks like this one might test your patience but I expect you will build a great looking model

Small update.

 

Applying the tracks. A bit of fiddling, but now they are completely applied.
And the Matilde is ready

Matilda looks good. interesting design of the jagdpanzer.

Thank you
The Airfix Matilda is actually their old model, supplemented with newly designed pieces for the Hedghog.
I think a Hetzer is always something special.
For this Hetzer, I think parts were "borrowed" from the Esci Hetzer

Small update.

A Hetzer ready for painting

And a camouflaged Hetzer.
