BA-64

Let's roll! The chassis is a real riddle, the instructions are not clear at all

Interior ready for washing and closing
![Album image #3 Album image #3](/albums/img/2/3/0/1575230-13641-21-720.jpg)
That should be dirty enough

![Album image #5 Album image #5](/albums/img/1/4/2/1577142-13641-90-720.jpg)
Couldn't help myself and had to do a bit of scratching
![Album image #6 Album image #6](/albums/img/5/6/9/1586569-13641-10-720.jpg)
No pressure ... at all

Flash? What flash?
![Album image #8 Album image #8](/albums/img/3/6/0/1591360-13641-16-720.jpg)
Last scratchbuilt bits added and it was time for priming
![Album image #9 Album image #9](/albums/img/3/6/1/1591361-13641-38-720.jpg)
Trying to preshade the bugger
![Album image #10 Album image #10](/albums/img/3/6/3/1591363-13641-61-720.jpg)
That's what my preshading looks like (I still needed some postshading too), still feeling too grainy

Waiting for varnish
![Album image #12 Album image #12](/albums/img/6/0/5/1594605-13641-73-720.jpg)
Almost forgot the tusks ... errrr ... hooks?
![Album image #13 Album image #13](/albums/img/4/9/7/1596497-13641-22-720.jpg)
Scratched the hook as the original became an offering to the carpet monster (it was unrecognizable anyway). Toothpick for scale, couldn't find a matchstick 😉

Experimenting

Another bit of scratchbulding
![Album image #16 Album image #16](/albums/img/3/0/7/1626307-13641-32-720.jpg)
Almost there!

For Zsozs 🙂

Thanks, it's tinier that I thought (need to find a matchstick!) and poor of course - what else would you expect? 😉
Luckily there are not too many parts, even though the chassis construction was a true riddle.
Still, the only game in town 🙂

Nice work so far, particularly as Ace kit are challenging little buggers. 😉
I've not seen this kit before.

I did Ba-65 in 1/48. I like the detail you added! It will make the difference in the end

Following along. I have few of these myself, they all look like a grind.

Welcome Gorbs, George and Aleck 😉
Added new pics in case you were wondering how I'm doing 😄

Interesting! Nice to see the BA-64 done in best scale... Maybe we will be graced with an more up-to-date kit at some point. These earlier (pre-3D-design) ACE kits are indeed quite a challenge!

1:72, wow. I can't get machine guns as nice in 1:35. Very nice build, congrats!

They certainly supply plenty of spare plastic in the kit. Rarely seen so much flash!
