SPAAG Gepard / Tamiya 1/35

Post by Dunhill2005 »

Hi Mates!!!
Too many aircraft makers be found here!!! Time to do something against it :pistols:
I am myself an aircraft maker :thumb2:

The kit from Tamiya was easy and uncomplicated assembled. But for some reason I have lost some mojo on this kit during assembly... :(
It said to myself: Clenching Teeth and carry on. :bash:
And this is the result:

I think it looks amazing!

The technical compartment with (I guess) the radar and fire control computer looks stunning :thumb2: :clap:

Cheers

Nice job on the vehicle. Incorporating the Bundeswehr beret badge onto the base is a thoughtful touch. Good work!

Great paint job here! You're right, planes and more planes - nice to see something that is land based.

Very well done, looks like the real thing. :thumb2:
And yes, to much things with wings, I like mud, mud is good.
Floating isn't bad either.

Great job :th: :th: The camo and subtle weathering looks wonderful. The Play-Doh method for the camo is a really neat trick.

Thank you for your kind words!!! :bow:: I'm happy that all of you like my kit... :banana:

@RobBye: Sorry to say that is not a baret-badge :shifty: . This is a Gunners-badge which I received many years ago. You can acquire it in three stages. Gold, silver and bronze. This is the bronze one. The golden one is hanging at my old uniform... :D
