Hello ! Its Hardest model in my model-making history Grille Ausf. H (Bison)...He got "only" ;) 156 parts (5 photo-etched) - Personally I must 3 antennes making - not in Box ...Will be 161 parts , this is a lot - He Is only 6,5cm long :) Model from Uni Models (UM). Professional Plastic Kits Firm from Ukraine in scale 1:72 = Dragon (my opinion).

OMG!

Those are really tiny thingies!!! I will have to try 1/72 panzer, because of space savings... But the size to these thingies scares me off :)

Dobra Robota / Good Job Eryk :)

Great work at that small scale dude. :th:

Question what did you use on the sides of the fighting compartment to add that texture?

Great work and im in awe of anyone that can build 1/72 with scratch built parts, i love armor but i wouldn't be able to see the small parts, but at least i can always check out your progress.

Hmm The "Antennes" for protective tarpaulin were to "big" to this scale model...Now I think are OK not to big..

great work Eyrk!!!
Wow... I'll never get over how small that is.
Those small scale armour pieces are at times harder to build than 1/35. The painting is difficult.
Well done!!!

Nice work! I picked up this kit a few months ago. Thinking of cranking up the scratch building heat and gutting this kit out to the hilt. Still have lots of research ahead of me. What were some of the biggest challenges in building the model?

Biggest challenges in building (for me )- Undercarrige (tracks)...and painting little details...

Model with decals 2 SS Panzer Division "Das Reich" - Kursk 1943...>>>>> That was in painting scheme - Not truth - This is 2 Panzer Division insignia not 2 SS - Shame UM shame :ooops:
