Look like a stunning kit. Just build my first cyberhobby kit and was just amazed.
Good luck and happy modelling

OK - after a long hiatus in it's bin, here is a massive update to the Nashorn saga.

I cannot seem to locate the priming and painting pics...flat black primer, dunkelgelb. Decals, then Ammo white washable camo, for the eastern front!

Then it was time to fit the tracks - a bit out of order because of the interrupted nature of this build.

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

Did a bit of detailing inside the fighting compartment.

Image

Image

Washable white went on very nicely.

Image

And then these were all that were left to complete the build. Note the date stamp. The washable white was not sealed in and had been on the model for just under three months.

Image

Setting the sag was a tedious affair, but I think it came out to look ok.

Image

Image

Need....more....clamps....and hands!

Image

Image

And the other side

Image

Image

Found I was a bit short for some reason. Must have shrunk over the intervening three months.

Image

Image

Image

Image

And the end result

Image

Image

Then it was time to work on the washable camo. Stiff brush, toothpick, and red scrubby stuff worked quite well IMO.

Image

Image

Image

Nothing done to this half yet.

Image

Or here

Image

You will note the transition here. There is also evidence that I have started the chipping to.

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

Then I turned my attention to the fighting compartment chipping.

Image

Image

Image

Ammo MIG Grey Base 908 and Shadow Rust 043 were used for this chipping.

Now that this build is active again - I hope you will look for another update and final reveal.

Thanks for looking and my apologies for the hiatus on this build
