    Next step is the fenders. In this publishing there is a double-sided printing and this a huge plus in in design. I wish every publisher could do so. For this time i marked bending lines from outside. This gave me accurate 90 degrees bend. Before gluing to place, I assembled front and rear...

    Thanks guys! Started to put outer skin. This step is crucial, and you must cut everything prices and dry fit every part. I did minimum adjustments to two parts only: 243 and 244. The fitment was satisfying and everything aligned well. To connect all parts in a best way i did it in this...

    Combat Engineering Vehicle - IMR-1 'TEST SHOT' & Full Build

    Wau! First as i saw the model in 1:35 with full interior i though you are crazy to build it. I can't understand why to design it in this scale with full interior. Then I read that you upscaled it to 1:18. Relieve ;) But the question is why not 1:25, though it is the ideal scale for paper armor...

    Thank you Chuffy. Really appreciate your kind words. Did my best. As for the glue - it is polish glue Brand Clear Glue (BCG). Works like white glue, but much comfortable for gluing edge to edge. I ordered it from polish site here

    I'm sorry for late update. Suddenly, there is some other major project in my life, that i need to route my free time to, so progress on Panzer I slowed down. But i managed to glued rest of rivets in fight compartment, though this was pain in the @ss. 0.6 rivets easily delaminate and hard to work...
