Thanks very much my good gentlemen

It is proving to be a pleasant build so far with no wukkas. Great to have you all along for the ride

Finished off the last bits on the trailer.
Added PE tool clamps and clasps and found an etch shovel to bling it up…

With that done I can start piecing together the flak gun.
thanks again for your support chaps

Cheers Chaps,
I know it’s only a tiny bit of bling but I like to see nice looking clamps on the tools. There is some bling to Chuck on the Panzer yet

Guy….Oh yeah
That music video is great. Reminds me of the film ‘Ferris Buellers day off……classic film 🎥

Work continued with the assembly of the flak 38

Now this was an involved build with over 50 parts, the fit of which was very good overall.
Seem lines and sinkage on some pieces required a bit of a scrape ….

There are still the shields to add and a few wing nuts in etch…..Which I’ll probably leave off until after painting?
Need to decide an interior colour for this too

Boots, Guy, Joe…….it’s a lovely bit of kit.
Tristar did a very nice job but I’ll have to say that the dragon version is nicer. It’s a bit crisper and more refined.

Boots…..I seem to have accumulated rather a lot of cutting mats, as you do. New ones seem to just appear round the house
