Bronco - Brückenleger auf Pz.Kpfw.II Ausf D 1
Posted: 30 Sep 2017, 15:52
Late to the show, again!
Its been a tough 3 months for the hobby, and my eyes still seem to be allergic to my optivisor, so figure painting is still on the back burner.
Been pottering with the Bronco kit, which has the Pz II D up to primer, and the bridge under construction.
I bought this one quite some time ago, just as well the GB came up!
the bits
a PMMS review of the II D
Pz II D
There doesn't seem to be a finished blog on the interweb, not a good omen, though the kit has been a dream to build so far.
Step by step as per instructions
jumped to tracks next as I will build as a single piece with the all the wheels fixed.
I was very pleased with how the Flammpanzer tracks worked.
Only 4 attachment points per track and 91 each side!
Back on "track" with the instructions
primer
The bridge is now under construction.
I don't have power to the AB station in the garage, at present, so I have a cunning plan
A can of Tamiya German Grey, and several hours of studying Michael Rinaldi You Tube videos.
I am back at work next week after 9 weeks off, so a staged return over the next 4 weeks.
I am feeling ready to go back, as I have been under Anna's feet for too long.
New medication and 8 weeks off analgesics, have improved the migraines, but not the magnifying vision just yet!
Hopefully at least 1 GB might have a chance of completion by the deadline?
Do we have the GB logo's yet?
More soon?
Regards
