Its Mine Now!!! Sd.Kfz.10/5...sort of

[eastrock]

That is what I got to see, T doing a modern stuff!!! soft skin armor is the trend now, probably will build one after this. Maybe trumpeter 1/35 M1132 or the dreaded Panda kit model lol

when the boss said this "this is going to be epic" you might run with our money, T!!! lol

[TRM]

Thanks Fellas! It's great to have the support and interest along the way!! Make it that much more enjoyable!!!

Great little kit, well worth the purchase. Some quirky things with the directions, but nothing that is not fixable!!

ER, not running away with anything brotha'!! LOL!!! As for the new stuff....not rulling anything out!! But, when you say "Maybe trumpeter 1/35 M1132 or the dreaded Panda kit model lol" I hear...Maybe trumpeter 1/35 blah blah blah blah or the dreaded blah kit model lol!!! I have to copy and paste just to find out what it is!! LOL!! Now that is funny!!

[eastrock]

lol!!! there's a lot of soft skin in the market as now, compared in the past... but with you just as boss said, it will be epic when it get into your hands!!! ;D

[TRM]

LOL...thanks for the vote of confidence ER!! Maybe soon, I will have a look at some of the new armor!!

[eastrock]

I will look forward to it, buddy!!! you can do wreck challenger 2 if you have to, since there's a only one kills due to friendly fire or an Abrams which a lot of them destroyed by IED. just a thought T

[armorguy]

Three months, that must be enough for you T, I'm sure this thread will become one of the most popular on the site, go for it mate !

[eastrock]

its more than enough for him, G!!!

T, I got extended work time today 2 shifts 16 hrs of horse playing lol, I guess no bench time today, I was already working on the turret hatch when I got the on-call duty. I'll be out 6am in the morning of Wednesday... probably 9am your time (Tuesday).

Thanks ER...might have to wait till a few more get KO'ed though Don't forget about taking time for Chester now!! ;D

Thanks for the confidence G~! I always hope there is enough time for thing...doesn't always work out that way though!!! I would like to see the kit itself don this week so I can take my time with the painting.

Thaks for stopping by Prof!! The kit is pretty nice...tiny and detailed. I would say worth the effort!!

Hiya Wouts!! Glad you could make it over! Thank you btw!!

[eastrock]

12hrs more and I'll be home, still need to drive with Chester, I hope I don't get sleepy eyes when getting home... lol still need a lot of surgery when I get home for the Chally and a medical gauze for the thermal blanket lol

[TRM]

LOL....the time will pass for you, hopefully fast!! Be careful on the ride too!! Looking forward to an update soon!!

[eastrock]

Was already planning to post some updates but work got in the way... since we don't have any holidays not like other profession... work hard, party harder!!! nah that's the old life... it really took a toll on me... now it more a bike ride and bench time, advantage of being a bachelor.

[robbo]

Nice choice of kit T

[wbill76]

Off to a great start T! This one's light years ahead of the old Italeri offering...and as usual with DML instructions, you have to stay on your toes a bit. Look forward to seeing what you do with it.

[TRM]

There is something to say about being single...don't knock it ER!!!

Ian, thanks for stopping by!! Glad to see you hanging around for this one!

Thanks Bill!! Yeah, the directions! Been snapping some pics and writing on them just in case someone get to building one, they will know what they are in store for!.

No need to apologize Sir jackwagon! Busy man you are!! LOL...."8 triplets"...that makes 24 Looking for a bit of a ramp up here I think!!

OK, it's time to have at this one a bit!!

I decided it was time to beat this up a little. Some dents, creases and just some good wear and tear...









Next stop is attacking the wheels...both the road wheels as well as the front tires. The dreaded tracks need to go together and then maybe I can think some priming!!!

As always, I appreciate you just stopping in like this!!

[eastrock]
