Panzer I, Spanish Civil War (Takom 1:35)

 

I'm trying out an assembly line approach on this build where I've removed all the pieces from the sprues up front 

 

These wheels were satisfying to build! 

Quick progress so far! 

I haven’t made much progress in the last few weeks because the old Covid finally caught up with me after avoiding it for 2+ years. I only had symptoms for 3 or 4 days but it left me low on energy for a while longer.

Tonight I was finally able to get back to the bench and get things moving again.  

Posing the FC Model Trend figures 

These tracks proved to be pretty tricky. All the reviews I've seen of TRex on YouTube have been very positive, but the Pz I track design makes the middle of each track link a very weak part. Fortunately there are plenty of spares included and I was able to get two complete runs together! 

Tiny! 

Here they are on the tank 

A metal tow cable is included in the kit 

Construction complete! 

A quick spray with a black rattle-can primer, and we're ready for painting!
