and space

and since i am more of a collector than a modeler (i don't have what people call 'tangan seni' ), collecting 1:72 is better for me since i could mix and match with the diecast ones too

http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10219867

Looking from the sprue itself it seems that ACE 1:72 Wespe would be the ultimate kit for Wespe in this particular scale, with correct details on everything. The gun could also traverse on horizontal plane, which is something Italeri (ESCI) can't replicate. The details such as radio, sight, gun trunion, charge boxes, breech, tread details, etc are all individually molded for that extra detail.

But then again, surely the superstructure would be a bit thick, a plague in this particular scale, considering that the actual vehicle would only have 15mm or armor thickness to it

I don't mind trying this if I could get my hands on this, locally. Penat woo nak mod the incomplete Italeri kit


P/S: I don't mind a bit of thickness here, the details seems lovely here on this particular kit

acceptable-lah since it seems okay to me
taobao i can't read chinese, luckily got a friend that can help with that. the problem is that there selections. too much

great-looking cockpit there surely it took some precious time dealing with such details

Man, scratchbuilding the interior surely ain't for me
First and last, so freaking lazy, and still some more things to do before I can close this Wespe chapter and move on with another build

Size comparison between Wespe (Panzer II chasis) and Sturer Emil (VK 30.01(H))

the best i could do for now. surely tak sehebat you guys here, but i'll try to improve with more build

lawa woo khai

tuan-puan yang dihormati,

how does one uses bondite for modeling?
i tengah pikir how to mod the front nose of Mi-24P Hind F by Italeri (1/72) into a Mi-24PN (since that is the one currently in service)


Mi-24P


Mi-24PN

apart from the shorter stub wings and non retractable landing wheels, all others are rather small details and internal differences only

nope, never tried puttying before. any links on step-by-step methods on doing it? kinda hopeless in searching for it

having a look on these now
thx yeah

not to mention painting. Gunpla makes modeling easier with multicolored sprue, and proper color separation. Military model makes sure on fully appreciate the build with dull monotone color so modeler can't cheat by building OOB

damn topol is indeed awesome
feels like getting one

Yup, 1/72 by Zvezda. Recently dealt with a seller on selling unassembled Topol for MYR 80.00 + MYR 10.00 (postage). Jackpot I'll say

Great haul on the 1/35 Maus. I ada 1/72 Maus pun rasa besar already

Haul je Lim, that one is a great purchase IMHO. IINM you also have the diecast ver, right?

Topol wo. Scud and Topol are two diff thing altogether, Scud is more or less half the length of Topol

Maus is still huge compared to modern tanks too, and even more if compared to the Russian MBT, the T- series

i would surely make the ver 2
alang-alang bazir ruang, biar bazir sepenuhnya

nazrul90 Isn't this the one that does not have the inner detail for the gun mechanism, if i remembered correctly? If so, fuh, necro

eh btw
taobao seller is having holiday or what (or are there any celebration in China that I am not aware of?)
my agent said that they are still not replying his PM

.__.

I was looking forward for Maquette Su-25UB and KP Model Su-25 (since those are cheapest one available with shark decal) so that I could accompany my Altaya Su-25

And Italeri Hind F with add on resin pilots. I thought if it was possible to attain before next week I would send the pilot to a friend to do recast.

Goes I have to continue with Zvezda Topol for now.

why does it took so much time and effort to build this thing only to reach only here :/
i thought doing 1/72 scale would not be that time consuming since i did my wespe last time, that was kinda easy (with the exception of customizing the superstructure and adding in additional details)

7 hours and I made this. Tsk
