[monica]

yes its another one,I have started,


the reason why is ,waiting on things to cure,and for some figures that are late on arriving


hope they show up tomorrow,:rolleyes:


so I started this one,as I got at the swap meet last sunday along with 6 other kits, :eek:


I have never done a Italeri,kit,


as with most kits need to let bits cure,so your able to move on,so have all the lower hull


done,so let sit,will not be able to start on the wheels till,,saturday,when I have a free day,


before going to Nic for a chat with the lads,which I do enjoy,


One thing I real like about this one has an engine in it,which is a first for me,so I,m so


happy to be able to show it off,


which means I will need to get a set of machines figures for this one,


well do hope you do like my progress so far, :D

youve never done an italerai kit??????????!!!!!!!! o_Oo_Oo_Oo_Oo_O


im surprised at that..............most are pretty good, some are excellent......have fun

 

[Fenlander]

Good grief, going to need a spreadsheet to keep track of your builds Monica.


Italeri are a love hate thing, I really quite like their kits and have a few in the stash.

 

[dubster72]

I don't think that I've ever built an Italeri kit before either! So I'm interested in watching yours Monica.


But.... I'm afraid I must ask for this one to be removed from the SSIG I don't want to be harsh, but I did say at the outset that Jagdpanthers weren't allowed.... sorry!

No, STuGs aren't allowed because they're technically assault/self-propelled guns.

This is a good kit Monica. You will have no build issues with this one it goes together well.

Scott

ta for the heads up Scott,It dose look nicely detailed as well,


having a look at the tracks,there a rubber type thing ,but in link and length,


so is there a problem to join them,?

I think they are the spare track sets Monica. Why Italeri have used rubbery plastic is anyone's guess!

 

[monica]

mm I have never found the right type of glue to use when gluing the rubbery type of track,


they seam to always pop apart,?:rolleyes:

 

[tommy1drop]

Nice choice Monica, will be following this build

 

[monica]

well todays update on this one,


have the wheels and low hull painted,fitted wheels,


so let sit and cure for a day or so,


glued the tracks,real hope they do stick,don,t have much luck,with serpent tracks sticking :eek:


add some bits to the upper hull still the same,need to let sit and cure for a day or so,


well hope you like my progress so far,
