Why? Where are the flaws? To be honest it seemes perfect to me
Stunning build, I like a lot
Maybe you've chose these thicker plasticard sheets to obtain a sturdier build.
I notce that your pieces are incredibly crisp and straight...
I'd like to know how you cut these 3 mm Plasticard sheets
If I were you I'd chose at most 1,5 mm plasticard sheets
Thanks for sharing
cheers

these surfaces have to be flat, but they're still curved a little:
I'm cutting styrene sheets with simple 18mm segment knife.
I've chosen 3mm styrene because I'm going to cast this construction in resin, and thinner styrene will be not solid enough

Yes Kamil , now (...just now... ) I can see what did you mean
Well I think you can rectfy it with a file and a drill used as a lathe
But anyway I think you are a very skill modeller so you can find the way to fix it
I think that cutting those thick sheets wasn't easy at all. I didn't think that it was necessary for resin casting
Thanks again for sharing
Now i'm waiting your next steps
cheers

Nice choice of project. Truly unique and original. If I had not seen the picture myself I would not believe it
Great progress, Kamil. Looking forward to see more

Well done
It looks great so far
I assume that you stacked up several plasticard circles with different diameters to obtain the rough shape of the turret
that's really effective

thank you, I'm glad you like it
drilling finished

Why do I always see this frog inside an ice cube when anyone posts a pic from imageshack?
Hisham
Hisham, I faced the same problem, all you have to do is register at imageshak.
Kamil, interesting build, do you have a pic of the truck in Afghanistan? I have hundreds of Soviet Afghan war but never seen this truck before.
