    Jim, thank you mate but believe me paint covers all sorts of faults.

                      Made a start on the 37mm PAK. The fit of parts is not good and they are chunky the mould is certainly showing its age. The etch is certainly lifting the detail.

                      I need to add a disc to the end of the arm. the sight link arm was replaced as the original was very badly miss aligned. the telescope was also replaced for the same reason.

                        Apologies got a bit behind on this. As Jim had already said it's getting to the point whereby it's almost a shame to paint it!

                        Simply brilliant.

                        Very well done indeed.

                          It's more than I'd be able to do - what you're doing is so far beyond where I am that it's on the event horizon and I'll doubt if I'll ever be able to get anywhere near as good. I'll stick to taking notes, and mimicking when I try!

                            Don't do yourself down mate, If I can do it anyone can. Just take your time and get a good optivisor. You will surprise yourself. If I can help just ask or PM me.

                                Well Tamiya may not be up to par with this kit but your work has definitely raised the standard of the PAK .
