They did indeed, this was their first as I recall? And the MK tracks were standard. They re-released it with IM interior on a later code, minus the MK I believe. I think you're right, their first release had the MK tracks and was very expensive. I did one of their Pz38 a few years ago, it was a great little kit. I just didn't like the tracks. Yeah built one of those too, lovely kit, in fact may get another as its on the HB range now and not too expensive.

So my 50 shades collection got another boost today. The 35t was a little less than £15 which is an absolute steal one of the new StuG IIIE And some crews, of course these may never see the light of day again.

I agree... that's a steal !! Did one of the CMK kits many years ago.. these Bronco kits must be light years ahead. Congrats !! Stug looks very nice too. Paul "The Stug Master Badman" will ask you for some sprue photos...

The 35t is on sale at Hannants, but I got this through Veteranus models on Facebook, so the whole lot cost just over £50, couldn't argue with that!

My latest acquisition, some new paints... as you will gather from the selection I am planning a few different modern builds, but I’ll be using the SCC15 Olive Drab for the Staghound.

Nice one Ade, what are the AK paints like? I have been using Ammo, are they similar? I’ll let you know Vlad, this’ll be the first time of trying these, as they are completely new and only just become available. I believe they are similar to Tamiya acrylics, being lacquer based.

Ah interesting, I will watch your progress with much interest, the colour swatches look good on the packaging so will be good to see how that translates onto the Stag.

Nice looking colours Ade, but I don't like the title of them. Real colors , so that means all other paints are wrong then .

Well, I’ve given it a try out... I have to say I’m impressed. My thoughts are thus: it’s very similar to Tamiya Acrylics, quite thick and needs a good amount of thinners. I used Tamiya X-20A to thin it and it worked well. It’s a very Matt finish and dries quick, similar to Tamiya. A great start. As long as the rest perform the same, I’d consider these as my default AFV paint, over Tamiya & Vallejo.

I'm undecided about these new colours too. Perhaps I'll use some specific colours if needed but then again I never stick with the stock colour anyway preferring to alter the tone for weathering purposes. I'll wait and see & stick to my usual tamiya & mr color paints.
