Re: Pickelhaube's Consignment Corner

Thanks my brother.
The tiger was fun to do.
The camo dots are a little challenging but worth doing.

Re: A Question for Picklehaube

Yes! The P-39 Airacobra gives us our first Russian WWII fighter finally! They did very well in this plane. My all time Russian favorite though is the Yak-9. So badly wish someone was interested in making that one. It was the best Russian fighter they produced. My favorite Russian plane of WW2 was t...

Re: Pickelhaube's Consignment Corner

Matthew are the added details just for this consignment or will they be offered for existing kits? I made the slat floor for this consignment. If or when I remake the molds I will probably make it to go with the kit. I guess I could make the fender wire as well . The break handle flip would have to...

Re: Pickelhaube's Consignment Corner

Thanks for spotting those details Normandy.
I also swapped out the cables for thinner ones.
I also made a wooden ( plastic ) floor platform.
I also made wire front fender braces.

I have about 40 hours into this little rascal.

Re: Ersatz M-10 Panther or A Wolf in Sheeps Clothing

The way things look it will be about 3 weeks before I will be able to make the molds.
Work was slow for a bit so I was able to make the protos , now it picked back and I am work 6 days a week.
I am taking Sundays off to get a breather.

Re: 1/18 Scale M-4A3E8 Back On Track

I thought that I was getting close to finishing this prototype but the rubber that I used to make the tracks is a bit soft. I could lay steel pins in the track but that will be a lot of work. I have an idea that I'm trying next and I am waiting for those parts to come in from China. I have the fende...

Re: 1/18th Scale P-47N & P-51D Repaint

I noticed on the orange painted rudder tip you had a paint ridge. I could not notice if you addressed this later in your build. Depending on your paint that you used ( I have switched to acrylics ) You need to take off the masking ASAP this alone may smooth out the ridge. Feel the tape if it is dry ...

Re: 1/18 Scale M-4A3E8 The Easy 8 Info Needed On Tracks

I was thinking of doing another American build after the Sturmtiger and was talking to a forum member and he suggested the Easy * project. I thought yes you are right. I solved the track issue by using the same rubber resin that I used on my King Tiger project. The only issue now is the channel stif...
