Maus (dragon kit)

[Razzie43]

We all known the Maus super tank of Hitler.
The Kit of dragon was hardly to find....
I buy the book also of the maus and that book cost more then the kit!

lol

Scale 1/35 ,figures not included!
And alot of wheels...

i drill the holes a bit deeper (left is done)

Then i bring a layer of tamiya putty grey color on the give me the old rusty metal on the metal plate!

This kit below is not mine i found it on the net for showing the front plates and side plates of the kit of dragon....i change it

The kit of dragon was not what i expected.
With some tamiya putty

I drill the holes on the upper hull above the engine,thanks to the book i buy.

The first layer was red primer,with some rusty color + dark chocolate brown )

The Result :

According to Wikipedia, the original was planned to be 35m long (39m if you include the main guns). At 1/35 that scales to 1m. That would be some kit!
