1/35 Bronco Bishop SPG - forum choice

[Dave Ward]

Back to the Bishop ( I'm blogging a bust on another forum ). Again, a lot of effort seems to bring small advances...............

Mount & sight parts - all individual asssemblies - there are still some smaller (!!) bits to add, and PE........................
I have however drawn the line at certain parts - OK, it was always going to be the case with some PE, but some of the plastic parts?

Against a standard 10A Scalpel blade - I can barely see them in real life, and they won't be missed from the sight assembly deep inside the housing. This is turning into a marathon assembly!!

Dave, That is small, do they really think we need bits that small?

[Dave Ward]

I feel sorry for the die tool maker! I'm just going to ignore those tiny parts..................

There are a couple of bits on the T90 that are that small, only one got fitted as the carpet monster ate the other one, not that you would notice anyway.

Dave, I was warned once about the tiny parts and count on the Valentine and Bishop. If the part can't be seen from any angle viewed I'd leave it off as long as it's not holding something together.

Cheers,
Richard

Try sanding the sprue marks off those three bits!!

Richard,
the tiny parts won't be missed, unless you are a 25pdr expert and you have zoom vision that can see inside the gun tower!
