2cm Flak 38 auf Pz.Kpfw.I Ausf.A 1:35 Dragon 6220

A little update

The tracks and running gear are done!

Yes I know its a bit radical, but "What the Heck"

Barrels have arrived too, the L50 is the cut down for a turret, so stashed for a Pz II?

I was concerned about the engine/cab divider being a bit higher than the tub sides?

But after a dry fit with the rear deck and the Flak platform it will be OK.

Time to warm up the garage for some priming and possibly AB work?

it is warmer at 8 C.

I also have a micro X-wing fighter to review and decide if it gets stripped before a re paint in to Po Dameron's fighter

More soon?

Sorry for the delay
Stug III trouble!
The interior has been painted, very badly!
All you can see,

The interior, not my best work, ever!

Time for some building and getting some paint on Po Dameron's X-wing fighter.
More soon?

It's been a while!
Sorry chaps but there's more.
It's all PE tool attachments which are/were working but have now been secured.
I have done the PE sides for the Flak platform too, but need to figure out how best to attach them?
I am thinking of pins on the brackets for strength and also to allow the rear to be removable to paint and weather the back of the Pz I.
Enough chat time for the photos

Tools off and brackets working
Next with tools attached and brackets secured, the fire extinguisher will be dealt with separately.

There is still loads of PE for the Pz I before getting to the Flak 30, which has an RB turned barrel and even more PE.
The sides of the Flak 30 gun platform

The pz I rear

And the remaining PE in the voyage set

So, lots more to do.

Great work Steve - glad you've managed to progress with this. Hopefully the snow will give you an excuse to stay in and do a bit more? After seeing all of that PE, I need a bit of a lie-down.

Tidy work Steve :thumb2:

Really nice job so far Steve! You gotta love Voyager sets as they give you so much inside. Tiny??? Of course and you have lots left over for something else. Hope you are healing up well and take care.....

Prost

Bling tastic Steve. Dont envy you having to do all those clamps. I hope they stay there during the painting process. Keep up the great work

[SteveH]

Opps, sorry chaps, another late update, got side tracked tidying up so I can paint heads!

Hope you are feeling less faint now Peter?

Leave the PE and doughnuts alone LOL!

Thanks Si

Absolutely Allen, loads left over, some of it doesn't even appear on the instructions!

I have CE'ed them for painting Steve, just took the photos to show they were working, Love the You Tube videos, you're a TV star now!

Right then, more insane PE with working hinges and working 20 mm cartridge boxes too.

I've parked this one along with the Stug III B waiting for a window in the weather for Air Brushing in the garage.

I'l build the Flak 30 last once I get over my current PE over indulgence
