1/87 Semi-scratch 8ton halftrack w/3ton Bilstein for Mr. T

[Steve Jones]

It's been quite the challenge. Your certainly making good progress

 

[minitnkr]

Some more progress. Slow, but trying not to force steps back. PaulE

Hi Paul
A bit late in - sorry. Great idea. Resin can be very fragile but often it's the only game in town. Looking very nice. All those ropes and pullies would try my patience.

Hi Paul, I'm late in too...apologies. That's a wee SDKFZ and crane marriage you got there. Progress looking good.

Cheers,
Richard

I think I'm looking at the biggest reason I've never attempted to build one of these.......very "fiddly" stuff, but I have seen you master this sort of thing in the past....old hat, right? Loving the progress, keep it going Paul. Rick H.

Paul,
That is a great looking build mate.

 

[minitnkr]

Thank you gents. Trying to hold up my end. This train thing is addictive. PaulE

 

[minitnkr]

On the home stretch now. PaulE

 

[Lee Drennen]

Paul. Very nice you did a great job on it actually looks bigger than 1/87 very convincing

 

[Mini Me]

I really like the way it sits......looks like it is under a pretty good load, I think these cranes were pretty heavy by themselves so adds to the realistic look. Rick H.

 

[minitnkr]

Thanks guys. Sharp eye Rick. I've lowered the front suspension 4". PaulE

 

[minitnkr]

Ready for decals & weather I think. PaulE

 

[Mini Me]

Just about there Paul....a very nice conversion. Rick H.

Paul .Can appreciate your problems with the resin esp in your scale, a night mare trying to work with sections that thin. Glad for you the you have it sorted, this doesn't mean you can slide back to the railway unnoticed !

 

[Neil Merryweather]

God that's tiny!
Respect,sir!

 

[Tim Marlow]

This is a great build Paul. Well done indeed.

Paul

Absolutely fantastic work, I struggle at 1/72 sometimes, so don't know how you do this!

Outstanding, especially at such a scale. Nicely done!

 

[colin m]

Very nice Paul. Lots of detail in a little area.

 

[Graeme C.]

Just had a catch up Paul, a lot of fiddly bits & added detail, Nice work!
