SPA Modeler

Nice progress!

Lyle and Tom, thank you. Next up is starting on the open top turret then interior painting.

Very cool! That's a lot of parts on the suspension.

Thank you Mike, Like most Dragon kits a lot of parts.

Got the windows put into the top section of the hull.


Something that would be easy to miss, the instructions don't tell you to add the 2cm. ammo rack to the side of the hull, the locating tabs are on the hull side for it. It's also something that can be seen through the open top.


The only after market part I'm using on this build is this Master Model turned brass barrel


The gun mount got the PE shield added, the PE gun sight was all messed up on the fret. Luckily I went through my extra parts and found another one.


I always liked the look of the open turrets with the mesh tops and this is the first time of me doing one. I ran a bead of solider down the joint of each one and cleaned them up and finally added some filler to smooth it all out. Here is right after solider.


Last to share is a whole bunch of subassemblies on my styrofoam holder that have been primed with Tamiya fine grey primer.


Next up is getting the airbrush out and finally getting some paint down on the interior.

Thanks for looking in!
SKOL!

My goodness, lotsa stuff going on. Looking good!

Yup... what Lyle said. Busy and lotsa stuff going on there. Interesting in using solider on PE...

Lyle and Tom, thank you guys!

Got some paint down


Getting ready to do some more painting today.
