That's why I was happy to use a friull tracks set frome a former PzI which didn't survive...

But now the best is ahead..

And....how did the MagicTracks work for you Martyn? Got a few kits in stash with them. At least it saves cleaning up the parts like on my last tank.

Hi Jan, just got this project on the side at the moment. Kit and most of the tracks are completed and primed ready for paint. They look good but I still get bored constructing them as Im more of a painting kind of guy 🙂

Well good luck with the build. I'm sure it will be stunning as always 🙂

Thanks for the kind comments. I think I will have to get back on with this project. Just need to get a couple of figures to set it off on a small diorama and have seen a good set from Dragon.🙂

Finished the Panzer 1. Set it off in a small diorama with a couple of the Dragon figures 🙂

Looks nice 👍 I like the weathering.
PS: Is there a reason why you left off parts A6/ A7 from the suspension system? ( I noticed because I am building a Panzerjäger I)

Well spotted HK. Complete oversight on my part. I've just rummaged through the bin and fortunately found them. That will teach me to follow the instructions more carefully.

🙂 Fortunately it is easy to glue on.

Panzer I Ausf. A - the tank that started it all. Very nice build Martyn. Nice scene and nice figures. 👍 I like the weathering and wear. Not beat up but nicely dusted.

Pretty little vignette, Martin. I like the finish. 👍
The only issue I noticed is the eyes of your figures... y.k.w.i.m.?😉

Martyn Fox
Thanks for the comments guys. Hi Ulf, I always seem to have a problem doing eyes. I guess it must be a problem with my eyes 🙂

Ulf Petersen
Well, perhaps you should try to limit yourself to a simple brush stroke in dark brown into the light brown eyeholes. That could be more convincing than the bulgy eyes they have now.😉

Any tips for the single track links? They drove me nearly crazy.

Martyn Fox
Drove me crazy too HK. I just use very thin cement and do them in small sections.Then I place them round the running gear and join up the smaller sections.It is a very fiddly job especially on a tank of this size🙂

Excepting changing them for Friuli tracks, I can't think of something clever to do...
