All I can say is try the method I use, practice on a piece of plastic first you can do one side in about 10min and it's easy to fake battle damage using this method.In my opion puttys are just a little to messy for my taste but thats just me.One thing you have to watch is just don't push to hard and...

very cool conversion the only problem I have is the whole barrel set up.The jagd had a 88 you would have to take a tiger and use base cut barrel off and shorten panther barrel and add tiger muzzle.You would also have to scratch build all top hatches because none of the panther stuff would work.The m...

The pleasure of modeling has nothing to do with collecting XD or 1:32. In modeling, one derives the pleasure from the act of putting together, sanding, painting and making the model look as realistic and accurate as possible. It's the result of one's labors.

I kinda thought the first series figures were a little more in scale some of the new figures look like giants.I have not really checked the scale only by looking at the german panzer1V figures standing against the tiger they look a little big does any one else see this?
