Global Scale Modeller

SteveAFV wrote:Hey Kev. Glad you are getting some modelling time. Those ammo box decals must have been fiddly!

They were mate very at first was also my first use of micro sol and set. Not sure they're the best quality either, it seemed to take ages for them to absorb the micro, they were also very flimsy with just water.

Wasted a few but git the hang of it. They look quite good I think, git all they other ammo box stowage to do, then Matt clear coat and the weathering can begin.

At this rate it will be Christmas

Wow.... all I can say is WOW !!

What a fantastic build - 30 years and a return into the hobby with a kit maxxed out with all the aftermarket that money can buy !!?!

That is awesome!

And you are indeed making a great job - it looks absolutely gorgeous

Many thanks hopefully it will be finished sometime after Christmas.

The engineering on modern kits has come a long way, and it looks like your skills haven't rusted at all! This should work out well, looking great so far.

Yup, looking mighty fine IMO

Many thanks guys, the building is due to restart some point this time next week

I can't wait it's been a long 6 months of looking at the bench but not being able to spend time on it, all coming to an end at at last roll on next week

At last I'm building again it's been a long six months and I moved house last week!

I've a long way to go, started yesterday, here's a few update pictures



The kitchen roll on the barrel is to protect the decal.

Glad to see you back Kev, looking goood

It may have been a long time since you built a model, but you have not lost any of your skills!! Well done

Having recently moved I don't as yet have BB, that's another story BT but I've been busy

Not too many pictures I'm afraid, doing this mobile with weak signal is painful to say the least anyway here you go








Almost at the stage of matt coat and start the weathering

Wow!

It looks awesome... I'm very tempted to make a "Fury"-build as well

Thank you Tommy still some way to go yet!

I've been on the bench last few days still not got BB and using MWifi which is very slow so less posting the BB is due on tomorrow

Here's what I've been up to last few days, the light/camera is showing the recognition panel as red but it's orange.

Beautiful and well stocked.

Small up date, I've started the weathering well I've been at it for a week couple hours a day.

This is my first attempt and I'm reading and probably over thinking it all so it's slow going as I don't want to muck it up. I can't get decent pictures at present the flash just wipes out all the detail and makes the model appear all one colour. I'll try again tomorrow, fingers crossed I'll get some decent ones

As promised, here's pictures of the various stage's I've been through. I can't really get the light right but there not too bad for a phone camera.







And here's the hull and turret


There's still a bit to do, side log's, cupola vision glass, headlight glass and a bit more weathering here and there, but the end is in sight

So good, it could have been the real tank from the Fury. Sterling job on all levels mate!

She's looking mighty fine there Kev!

Thanks guys, did some more this evening, pictures tomorrow.

Ok I'm calling this done

Well done mate. She´s a beaut!

Lovely job

What a beauty!

Good job. mate. It look fantastic


Tommy

Kev,

sweet result on your first build after a long "break". The end result is something to be verry proud of.
