Great interior!

Neuling
Super clean work! 👍

Peter Schijvens
@Trez, I bought this kit with some other kits…the interior could not be used!! See my Sherman build with interior 😉

Trez Mackenzie
I will of course check out the Sherman as lifeless egg shell tanks are not my thing! Photo number 2 shows the interior though…

Guy Rump
Very nice build. 👍

John
Nice build of this mean-looking vehicle. Camo looks really nice too. Can't wait to see it finished.

Kirill K.

Lebloge

Thank you everyone!
I'm a bit unsatisfied with the photo, but I finished it anyway.

Photography is very difficult for me. I have no idea.😿

Guy Rump
Great job! 👍

I hope I havnt been to much of a bother for you.

(Perhaps the transparencies and propellers from this kit would work:
Soviet Tu-2 Bomber (HobbyBoss 80298, 1:72))

Thomas Kolb
Thank you Robert! The three-bladed standard propellers in the kit are actually fine, it is the transparencies I am a bit worried about.

Łukasz Gliński
Me 2, must watch this - wondering how good/bad this kit is

Dave Flitton
Watching!!

Me 3, this will be another great build to follow.

Me 5!
I still don't understand why they haven't released a more updated tool for this model yet.

Moreno Baruffini
Thomas, you are a specialist in reminding me the models I started and non finished (yet)! Super inspiring, and a great build to follow for sure!

Thomas Kolb
Dear friends, thank you for your interest. I am a bit curious myself how this model will turn out - I have read some pretty nasty things about it in reviews, but I am not sure it's so bad. It certainly looks very intricately designed, not your usual shake 'n' bake kit for sure.

Gergő Takács
Thomas, you are doing always the same project what I want to do in the future with the same kits. 😀 I'm always taking a seat and save your work for motivation.

I'm in

Łukasz Gliński
Thomas, your tutorial is priceless! 👍

Mr D
Like this 👍👍
Big fan of soviet n russian stuff, will have to look up history on this one as new to me.
Interesting subject, Nice 😁

Cuajete
Good start, Thomas. Thank you so much for your tutorial 👍

Thomas Kolb
I must say, I am pretty impressed with this kit so far. At first sight it looked like an Amodel kit, but everything is very cleverly designed and all parts fits together beautifully without any problems. The only gripe I have is with the plastic itself - it's very soft and stretchy and definitely does not like to be sanded.

Nicolas
Nice start, joining.

Живко Джаков
I'm here too. I have one in a box and we only see each other with it 🙂

Cuajete
Great job so far, Thomas 👍
I never bought this kit because I thought it would be difficult to deal with.

Thomas Kolb
Cuajete, I must say, I am pretty impressed with this kit so far. At first sight it looked like an Amodel kit, but everything is very cleverly designed and the parts almost fall together by themselves without any problems. The only gripe I have is with the plastic itself - it's very soft and kind of stretchy, and all sanding needs to be followed by polishing to result in a smooth surface.

Cuajete
Thanks, Thomas. I'll have to consider buying the latest ICM box 👍.

Cuajete
Good progress, Thomas 👍

Mr D
Looking good 👍, the canopy is fine, be ok when all printed up, fits fuselage well, the canopy on the Revell FW-190 l did was horrendous!! Would be good for bathroom privacy glass 🤣.
What glue do you use to fix canopy??

Thomas Kolb
Mr D, Thank you! I used regular Revell styrene cement (the blue one with the needle tip). Just added a string of solvent around the fuselage edges and then placed the canopy on. I normallt use water-based cement for transparencies to avoid fogging, but if you are careful, it's not a problem to use solvent based cement.

Mr D
Brilliant thank you 👍👍

Thomas Kolb
Using the precut masks would be so much easier if they actually fit the model... But the flight deck glasshouse parts seem to be designed for a different kit, so I am back to using Tamiya masking tape.

Guy Rump
Looking great! 👍

Guy Rump
Very nice job! 👍

Anth
I'm bodging my way through this.kit 😳

Dietmar Bogatzki
Okay the Engine needs some wiring but elseware its a easy to build kit 🙂

Anth
Thank you for your opinion 👍

René "Lord Bilbo" Bartholemy
Taking a seat.
Looks good so far. 🤓

Ben M
Starting to look very turrety

Anth
Thanks Ben. 👀 making progress - slowly 🫡

Bruce Huxtable
Really interesting subject, and liking your progress, Anth.

Anth
Cheers Bruce. It's my first Miniart and quite high part count. But, the fit is generally amazingly good . I did most of the interior for practice but in general I don't find time on stuff that can't be seen at the end enjoyable,

Dietmar Bogatzki
Great build, Anth and nice paintjob, easy build i guess (Y}

Guy Rump
Looking great! 👍
