Holy cow!!
Without your finger or the match stick It could be 1/48.
This is a wickedly detailed kit for braille scale Eryk!
She's going to look really cool after you work your magic on her.

Never done a 1:72 and Iam a newbie but making small scale seems so much more difficult. Ive broken off so many parts of my !:35 panzer IV now that im running out of superglue. Tnx for the inspiration.

they arnt as bad they look, I'm a 72scale King Tiger from dragon in this section too, and the only big difference between big scale and little scale I find is you need to be a little more patient with them, and any little bit of work you put into them really shines on your model

would really recommend you try a new Zvezda, Dragon or Revell and see if you like them as they are for the most part great kits

Thanx very much Paul :bow:: P.s. Schane is right: Dragon, Zvezda , Revell is the best choice ..and yet Unimodels (UM) ...In 1:72 a lot verrrry small parts to gluing and after painting + my anachronic painting technique with only tradidional brushes - not easy to good effect :doh: , but i working only in 1:72 & 1:76 scale and brushes - for me is good fun . My next model after this Panther will be a Pz.kpfw III M from Revell - "only" 189 parts, details and this tank in this scale is sooo big > 7cm long :lol: - for me will be diabolic challenge mates .

Ok now I understand. But what kind of glue do you use? Must be a very thin? Or do you do it the russian way and just force em together? ;)
