Dragon 1/35 Panzer IV/70 (A) Zwischenlosung
This is the old Dragon Kit I built some time ago I was never happy with the finish so repainted it in a winter finish . The model was recently sold to fund another project.

Italeri 1/35 Flakpanzer 38t Finished

Italeri Flakpanzer 38t
Finished at last.Nightmare over. The last thing to give me a problem were the tracks. 
There is a fault with the links that go around the drive sprocket. The teeth seem too wide and too long so you need to file them to make them thinner then clip a bit off and even then they do not want to conform properly around the sprocket.

Flakpanzer 38 t Progress





Progress has been a little slow. You can see all the areas which needed to be filled. I think the open parts on the gun platform are for ammunition storage but nothing is supplied or pointed out in the instructions this means you need to paint the panels under the platform as this can be seen. I went for red oxide.

Again you can see the amount of filling needed on the upper hull. It is worth noting if you are building this kit that it is better to skip to section 6 of the instructions and fit part 33b before fitting 46d and 47d In section 5. This allows you to line up these parts correctly but you will need to fill along the sides as can be seen above.
