MENG 1:35 SHILKA

[js1714]

Greetings Slaves to the plastic...I've now completed the Shilka. All in all I would say that MENG have hit the nail on the head here but..!! there were a few issue's. 1: The small PE chains at the back of the vehicle are so delicate that extreme caution must be used when both handling and fitting them. 2. The hoses for the Guns are small and all the work done to fit them is not seen. I would have appreciated a detailed turret interior so that the hatches could have been displayed open. That said I enjoyed the build anyway and really liked this one. I used the metal track option and also fitted a chain on the back to hold the un-ditching Log on. Your opinions as the master's of this hobby would mean a lot to me as I have only been back at this for 2 years. I hope you like it,,Model on..

You've done a great job on this. I love how you've chipped the decals. Only real problem, and it's really minor, is the tracks on the left side that aren't sitting on the wheels.
