Just caught up on this. It is looking absolutely superb. The varnish accident had added another level to the finish in my opinion. The whole is up there with your best, and that is a pretty rarified field. Great stuff Scottie :thumb2:

A quick update. I'm waiting for some rod to turn up so I can carry on with the trailer. In the mean time I have done some work on the Flak 38. I am using the Eduard etch set and punched details.







cheers

Scottie, with the quality of modelling you've been sharing with us lately, when you posted that you were 'waiting for some rod to turn up' my mind instantly pictured you stood in front of a mini lathe turning up the rod on that! :smiling:

John,
Sorry mate, but there is nothing lacking with skills on here.

Quick update. Assembly of the guns has continued and a bit more bling added. The magazine racks have been soldered together and fitted, the shield has also been soldered and fitted. Two metal hoops have been added from wire to the footplates.



There are etch flash hiders but I will leave the plastic ones, I did thin them down but looking at the picture I need to thin them down a bit more.

cheers
Scottie

Nice work getting the magazine rack squared up like that Scottie...
