Hi all
I'd like you to refer to my recent introduction-post to get some slight back info.
Anyways, I've been gone from the hobby for roughly 5 years. The entire point of this build was that it was supposed to be for fun. I had no intentions whatsoever to bother with all ejection pin marks and mould lines and what not. It was just to build it and have fun at a temporarily set up work space.
Having said that, this took me perhaps 12 hours in total. Which is new for me, because I usualy spent three-four months on builds that were way less complex (without interior and such). And I'm very happy with the result, despite it's shortcomings (especially the tracks not meeting completely).
It has a very simple weathering of a black wash, chips painted with black grey paint and a quick dusting of pigments.
It's set to be eastern front 1943, markings being the 9th Panzer Aufklärung Abteilung of the 9th Panzer Division (9.Pz.Afk.Abt. 9.Pz.Div.), which is the very unit I reenact in real life.
Anyways, here's the pictures.
And then there's the interior. Halfway trough the interior I dryfitted everything and really, nothing showed. So I weatherd the rear part of the interior and basically left it with that. Here's some decent pictures of the interior, and the gun assembly:
And that's it! Was a fun build, and I'm very pleased with the result, especially considering how fast it went.
Thanks for checking in!
Kind regards,
