Thanks Sean, Stephan,
The kit came with a photo-etched instrument panel with photo film dials very nice but the consoles were just molded and a bit soft in detail. I first painted them white then black and scratched the instruments with a needle after a drop of Future and they are done.
Cheers Rob.

Well I guess I am done. My first tank model sense high school some 20 years ago and really my second completed model sense trying to get back into the hobby. Back in the day we didn't have all these fancy washes, I ground chalks down to make dust and dirt. I am not even sure how to use these fancy washes but I tried. Everything is pretty much AK Interactive. US Modern, Dark Tracks, Rubber Tires, OIF wash and Streaking. I did use a touch of chipping old school air spray technique with Vallejo German Brown(??) as my under tone. I give my self a 5 out of 10, most for effort.

Hi,
@Nito74: I saw a hull of H35 (maybe H38) in the boxcover, next to your Sukhoi. Another beautiful project?
It's a Marder I kit from Trumpeter for the D-Day Campaign.
A very crude an simple build

The fuse is together however I forgot to put any weights in and the epoxy I used to put it in after does not seem to want to set.
Cheers Rob.

It makes me surprise. A extremely detailed Dreadnought!
I also congratulate JonDicks with M-1083 6x6 and taffaej with Warrior in this page 24. You'd finished your works.
Nito74 Some weapons and decal ... to finish point?
Posted: Monday, June 02, 2014 - 12:59 PM UTC
Thanks all for the very kind comments.
My first campaign and it was useful to push me to finish the Dreadnought. I usually let this meander for way too long.
thanks again
Michael

Jon. Awesome work on the truck. I like the weathering, its very realistic.
Michael, your HMS Dreadnought is simply stunning. I hope my attempt at adding etch is half as neat as yours.

Suffering nasty flu for third day. Nothing could piss you off more, than having this on hot, sunny days. So, that was it. This would have been great campaign to finish but now I settle down to wait part two.. My KV rolls now back into box for better time to come.. Congrats to all those who made it.

Those images (linked photobucket) are fault and dissappeared although I did nothing. I don't know how to fix that when the 'edit' button is not found...
Thank you, Sean, Kimmo...
Cheers,
