My overall thoughts of this Kit mediocre kit with ok details, the only part that was frustrating about the kit is that the tracks were difficult to mount ( because of flat surfaces on protruding edge) I think I was able to make it somewhat better than the original by adding scratched parts and this build was a interesting experience for my first scratchbuild.
Here are my finished photos of the M-18 Hellcat for the campaign.
I'm overwhelmed by the great models shown in this campaign. And I'm sure there will be more! Tom
Long time modeller. Starting when I was a teenager, then I found out about girls and college and work and kids. But now that I have one girl, no school, no work and the kids are grown, I'm back to full time modelling. My prime area of interest is armor, b

Maybe i'm doing something wrong, but this is my second Dragon A and the first did the same thing. On to the painting: all primed

Howdy Y'all I've had a lot going on in my life, alas, not much modeling time. I only managed to finish one of my tiny 1/144 Dragon Tigers. This is the Tiger I in the desert scheme. I wanted to paint the jerry cans a different 'Afrika Korp Yellow' and do some more weathering. I'm calling this one done so I can upload it into the gallery. Y'all take care, Don "Lakota"
