Some time ago, an article was printed in, I believe it was, Fine Scale Modeller about a fellow who build one from scratch. I'd like to check that out once more since I also intend to build one. I want to compare source and details with that article. Can anyone help? Does anyone remember that feature?

Here are the first shots of my MBV f34 build. I must admit to some assumptions. I have looked at the photos, that I can find, of this beast, and I seem to see some variations in shape and contour. It seems that it could be rounded off from top to bottom, on its side panels, in some views but in others it is not. Also the extreme front and rear portions seem to angle inward getting narrower in width. But, I have found that not to be the case. I can't imagine the Russian designer going for elegance over function during WW II. So as I build up the body panels you will see hoe I've assumed a general shape. I don't think I have
the photo thing correct yet

you need to look at your picture in the photos section and then right click over the picture and select properties. Then get the url for the pic from that list. Complicated, but it works.
