#6 Tristar Panzer 1 Ausf. A sd.Kfz.101 (Early) WIP

The head light looks fine so mess with it

Damn Edmund, that's one serious paint collection you have there, put's my meager 20+ jars and bottles to shame.

Nice progress on the T34, I started one (T34/85) 2 months ago. I'll have to start back on that one, thanks for the inspiration buddy.

Now I'm embrassed to say, I only just got the tracks on my panzer today. (I'll try to get up an update later tonight.)  That's a huge compliment coming from you Michael!  I am waiting on your track tutorial because I am very curious what kind of 7 rings of hell a guy would have to go through to get those to work!

 Actually the tracks weren't that bad, abit of work to get them off the sprues and to weather. But other then that, they went together nicely. (Finally posted the update in the thread.)

Don't know why...but those first few pics have a sort of "Raiders of the Lost Ark" feel to them!

Absolutely!

I had thrown it into the jeep this morning to take it with me to an early morning meeting and the Jeep's interior is black leather with dark charcoal gray carpeting.  I happen to glance down with the sun comig  through the widows and thought that would be a nice picture so I pulled over and took some!

   Schnobs, that's one nice looking mini panzer. Those shots in the natural light are outstanding.

   So tell the truth that's not really the bench you do all your work at right?  Cuase it's way to clean if you ask me lol.

Thanks Steve I really liked the ones on the floor of my Jeep.  An expensive light box to be sure!

My Bench only looks like that at the end of a build!  During a build it is a madhouse of creativity!

Nice looking wee-bitty panzer, Edmund! I agree with Billl that t has a movie-like quality to it!

Hey Karl,

I was up late I couldn't sleep and just saw your post.  Yes the light coming through the open door of the Jeeep was perfect.  I am glad you like it Karl it turned out pretty cool!

Sweet little build Edmund.

Thanks Marc!  I could not leave well enough alone and it is Julian's fault!!!!   I ordered some very cool aftermarket headlights from Elf Productions
