15 cm sIG 33 (mot S) auf Pz.Kpfw.I Ausf.B
The gun assembled. Used the parts from the box, plus metal barrel/breech. Disappointed in both of them. Very poor quality white metal pieces. Only the machined barrel is quite good, but does not fit well into the parts it came with.
Major assemblies coming together. Only the driveshaft and transmission are molded well. The bulkhead is WAY too small for the hull and will need a lot of work. The driver's controls are just awful.
The bulkhead will need a lot of sanding to fit properly.
The kit is coming together, and more and more flaws are coming out. The resin parts are widely the wrong size. After complete assembly, it also turns out that the gun doesn't fit at all. The chassis is too long, and the axles are too high.
Managed to hammer it into one piece, at least. Let's see how much of the awfulness I can hide under a camo net.
Some preliminary pigments on the hull sides and suspension.
