Hi Guy 👋😃👍
Taking good shape now, has it all gone together ok so far..?? Tamiya are usually good?
I've only do one armour model....the Airfix Sherman 1/72 ....was a gift.
Best of luck with next steps 👍👍

Guy Rump
Primer is now on! Next is the undercoat colour. 👍

Many thanks Mr D for your kind comment. It's fitted together really well as you'd expect. I'm experimenting with this one with a bit of weathering and chipping, hopefully it will turn out ok. 👍

Many thanks mates for your interest and likes Jan P, RolfRolf & Lukas M. 👍

Wheels added and first bit of the weathering done, the chipping effects. Next will be to start to add all of the ancillaries. 🙂

Following. Still struggling with my Revell/Modeltrans/OKB Grigorov Merk. Also bought the EMP3D ball and chain armour but see that you used the balls only. Anxious to hear why. Where did you find the super fine chain? I didn't.

Robert Podkoński
Fantastic work so far. Keep it up!

Following.
I had also thought about replicating the chainball armor with chains for my two Merkavas and tried but failed because the chains I found all seemed too big.

Michael Kohl
I was elated when EMP3D released the ball and chain armour and I ordered it and it looks very good. So I am anxious to know why Pryzemyslav discarded it.

Watching.

Thx mates.
When i've bought EMP3D i was very happy, because there are no in the trumpeter set.
But after installation it occured they hang to low and just break with little turret movement
After few trials to fix them, ideas to rebuild the turewt, i've decided to replace them
Found small chains (even smaller that i've used) on mojehobby.pl

Can you tell us the productcode of the chains or a link? Thanks!

There are some more

Łukasz Gliński
Very interesting job, will follow
Thx for the chain info

Shar Dipree
Thanks.
I used the ChainBallArmor from Modell Trans Modellbau on my two Merkavas. They look appropriate - but still no comparison to a real chain - and don't touch the tank structure: Dio: Two Merkava Mk.IIID (LIC) on a desert road | Album by Shar (1:72)
Chain ball armor by Modell Trans Modelbau: Merkava III D - ugrade set (..ans Modellbau MT72237, 1:72)

Thank you very much for the links!

Michael Kohl
Thanx for the info and the links. Much appreciated. I will take care to avoid your issue with my Revell Merk - now that I know. Anxious about your further progress.
PS: I was very disappointed by my Modeltrans Merkava IIID upgrade set and even more so by the top armour for the Revell kit.

Spanjaard
very interesting. I plan something similar for my Merkava, certainly a lot of work but no PE or resin can beat a real chain 🙂
