Global Scale Modeller

Tamiya 1/35 Flakpanzer Gepard....

This is my second piece of armour so, please be gentle.

Loved this build from start to finish. Cracking kit to build and 30 years old too!

Sweet! I like that it's not overly weathered which most are because they go into muddy terrains, but, it's nice to see one with subtlety. Fab paint job, inside and out!

Cheers buddy, I prefer subtle

Congrats on the finish Lee
It looks great even with out a large amount of dust and dirt
Suprusing that an old kit can give such a result
So wich of the aa collection will be next

Looks great!!!!
The tank looks as if you've never built anything else except armored vehicles

Very nice Lee. The subtlety of the finishes is excellent. Not bad for your second in the genre - I have to consider returning to them.

Nice work mate, defo needs some more weathering though imo.

Cheers for the comments fellas, does the confidence no end of good

Why does it have to be ultra dirty or battered to death Paul?

When did i say that?

Beautiful job for your 2nd armour kit Lee.... you should be proud ...

Thanks Gary

Hey Lee congrats on finishing a kit! lol she looks superb, love that subtle weathering, it really suits this vehicle

lol - Thanks dude

Very nice build Lee , we could say that you build armor all your modeler life !

And the kit for an oldie seems very nice , some very nice details .

Done a great job on this , if you are like me now that we started in armor ( My D-Day churchill is a little bit ( just a liitle...) more weathered )we will build a lot more

Nice job Lee, looks fantastic. Monkey see, Monkey do. I've started looking around for the kit.

Cheers guys

Very nice work
Great Bronze green! What is it?

Lovely build lee, when in Germany on Excersize I remember seeing one of these fire, the amount of lead they chuck in the air is quite staggering!

Very good work Chief ...but why so big ?

That is one fine looking piece of war machinery!
Welcome to the Groundhogs.

cheers, mr. Lee

This turned out great especially for an old kit. I have avoided the 70's Tamiya armour assuming them to be compromised for motorization and generally a bit clunky but I may have to think again. I think an ideal stablemate for this beast would be the Tamiya Leopard of the same vintage. I would love to see you give it the same treatment. Nice
