Thanks all for your interest! This is my first major project in a long time as I haven't had a dedicated modelling area for a number of years. I'm still a bit rusty in some places but I'm very much enjoying the build. The Eduard MiG-21 is a really great kit so that has helped a lot.

Heyo all! I have not really posted anything about this particular project yet, even though is has been holding me up for quite a bit of time now...
As modellers, our hobby naturally includes a lot of problem-solving and some challenges and maybe I should not be complaining, but it felt like this particular project trew a bunch of sticks and stones in my path:
Firstly, the resin Humber Scout Car was abit of a challenge with all the sanding and cutting that comes with these types of kit... apparently taking the place of the instructions, which I did not get any of. With a bit of research however, it was overall ok to build.
Secondly, the Roden Panzerwerfer has rubber tracks which I knew were too short beforehand. Thus I first bought a 3D printed replacement running-gear from FC Modeltrend. That piece however turned out to be an example of how not to do 3D-printed products: it sat on the plate without any angle and was a single piecewith two tracks, the suspension and some chassis-parts... how does one support such a print? Apparently not correctly, as the supports along the side-details of the wheels and suspension parts were partially "molten" into the details which in the end prevented me from using this piece. If you have a micro-drill, calm hands and a lot of time, one could "carve out" the supports and reinstate the details, I suppose... For me, switching to a Modelltrans-set (one piece running gear for each side) was the order of the day. It is not perfectlycast either, but after some adjustment, I made it fit the Roden kit. Using the PE-set and doing the interior took a lot of time as well, but that was largely fine.
As said, maybe I am complaining too much and in that case do take these notes as a simple report on the difficulties experienced so far in this project... rant is over 👍

Looks great so far! I certainly appreciate your report as it highlights challenges one can encounter: so rant away 🙂 👍

Appreciate your interest mates 👍 maybe I´m able to get the groundwork ready to paint with some additional scatter and some static grass

With the problems you encountered I'm surprised it looks as good as it does.

Finished pictures are now up as well!

Very nice work!
If you go to 'Manage' and the 'Advanced options' you can change the orientation of your photos.
