    Maus (dragon kit)

    We all known the Maus super tank of Hitler.
    The Kit of dragon was hardly to find....
    I buy the book also of the maus and that book cost more then the kit!

    lol










    Scale 1/35 ,figures not included!
    And alot of wheels...

    i drill the holes a bit deeper (left is done)



    Then i bring a layer of tamiya putty grey color on the give me the old rusty metal on the metal plate!



    This kit below is not mine i found it on the net for showing the front plates and side plates of the kit of dragon....i change it


    The kit of dragon was not what i expected.
    With some tamiya putty





    I drill the holes on the upper hull above the engine,thanks to the book i buy.



    The first layer was red primer,with some rusty color + dark chocolate brown )




    The Result :

                According to Wikipedia, the original was planned to be 35m long (39m if you include the main guns). At 1/35 that scales to 1m. That would be some kit!
