Quick Painting Update

 Over the last little while, I have painted the last of the Battle Honours 3D figures (more tank riders) and built and painted a final JS II tank.

The tank came with the last Achtung Panzer box set and I tried to sell it because I thought I already had sufficient late war heavy tanks - but no one would pay $20 (under ten quid) for it so I thought "well, I am not giving it away, I might as well build it myself" - which is what I have done!


For some simple variety, I cut the 2 off the end of the tank number 432 and applied the two parts separately to change it to 243



Its a "Guards" tank once again



One male (plastic that comes with the kit) and one female (resin that is a special that is included in the box set) crew poking their heads out of the turret hatches 




As I said, just a quick post tonight - hope everyone is well and enjoying our wonderful hobby in the four corners of the globe!

  1. Well if no one wants it, it makes sense to build it, which might then make it more saleable! A good addition to your Soviets no matter what. Sadly stinkingly hot here, to the point where we are likely to smash the June record temperature, which was set in 1976. Even hotter the next few days, but nothing compared to Europe, which is in the low 40'sC!!!
