What the Fuchs this?!

[chief5437]

Ok, I know I said the tornado was my final entry. But I picked this up today, I've been after a 1/35 version but saw this and couldn't help myself!



I'll be doing it as a British NBC version, so I'm hoping I can find some decals to suit in the decal dungeon!

First update on this.

Quick look at what's in the box first.

Three main sprues, in a dark green hard plastic.



Three smaller sprues, with a separate part for the NBC variant. And one clear piece.




There's some steel wire attached to the instructions for antennas, nice addition but only needed for the EW variant, so they can go in the spares bin.



Usual Revell instructions, although they look better laid out than others I've seen.



Decals for two options, both German. I won't be using these as I'm doing a Brit version.



Steps 1-17 done. I lost count as to how many parts are used, it's like a bloody cats cradle down there, lol!





That's taken me all night to do! Lots of tiny shafts and linkages, easy to break and easier to drop on the floor! Enjoying it so far though

Thanks for looking guys

Always happy to make your life easier Mike, lol!

This is all built up now. As Goose mentioned, make sure you put parts 65 & 66 in before joining the upper and lower hulls together.

Here's some pics, wheels are just loosely on for now, will paint them separately.







Ready for some paint now! thanks for looking guys
