Practice build to remember how to do it!

[Guest]

Well, I'm calling it a day on this one now. It was intended to be a practice build and have learnt a lot that I will change on future models.

Not too impressed with the Emhar kit (maybe just a bad kit, not sure, first one I have ever bought from this company), very little detail and quite poor casting.

Does anyone know who else makes these WW1 tanks 1/35 scale?

really enjoyed using the airbrush too, really glad I got it now and looking forward to using it for some basic tones on my next builds (think I will miss out camo themes for a while till I get more practice).

Actually, I have just had another idea. I want to make one of the wooden beams for the top (the one for getting it out of boggy stuff). I was thinking of using balsa and some small chain, maybe railway chain or something similar. The only thing that is bothering me, is that I can't figure out where the chaines were attached on the real thing. All the pics I have seen, doesn't show how they are attached. Does anyone have any ideas?

Hi rob, sorry cant help with the chains but i must say ,thats a brilliant job youve done on the tank. Your camo looks great, i dont think youll have any problems getting used to the airbrush. cheers tony
