Hi Gang
This is the victim circa 1999
A review with sprue shots
Flammpanzer IID
But as proof I have some of my own!
a single bag
the bits
232 individual track links!
Could it get any better
was it really this price
Lets see what a weekend can do!
Waiting for the snow to abate so I can visit Anna,
Update on the Grasshopper due too
Catch up later Raoul
More soon?
Thanks for popping by,
Have fun all you speed builders

What is it with you people and these ancient monstrosities all the time?
I hope Anna is well?

Ohhhhh - very nice choice, let's hope that it'll turn out manageable, though I have no doubts in this regards with you doing the build!
Hm, that would be an idea for this build... I still have a Bronco IID...
Best regards

Morning chaps
Don't worry Raoul,
Bronco have the Flammpanzer II D in their range too
Bronco option
A really good reason to build this one
Philipp, it was going back to E-bay, so nothing to loose
I shall, if I finish, auction it and donate to PA, as I did with the Pz II G 70's build.
So it will be fun, an exercise in painting techniques and a quick sale, if I/when finish
Progress has been slowed a little by my modeling partner?
Harvey thinks he knows better, when it comes to modeling
End of day 1
I will need to paint the interior black as nothing fits tight, hatches lids or anything at all
I shall be, having another go at it today, perhaps a mouse might catch my red friends eye enough to get some quality modeling done
I WILL catch up today Raoul
More later
Regards

The modelling weekend is over
Modeller 0, weather 1, cats 2!!!
Even Charlie thinks he knows better when it comes to modeling lite tanks!
I just can't win!
Interior primed black, and all the inner faces of the wheels too, but more on them another day
The bits so far
Some little bits to attach then primer
Getting there, but the tracks will need all 232 links cleaning up with only 3 attachment points per link!!
more later

Interesting choice Steve.
It's nice to have some furry company when you're modelling

They don't need thumbs Steve. We do everything for them now anyway
Good save on the front plate by the way.
