Hi guys I have not posted here in a number of years but Im hoping to contribute again. I have only just started to build some 1/72 kits and I have to say I am really enjoying it. This is Trumpeters Ferdinand which is nearly finished to acompany Dragons Bergetiger (P) on a small base eventually.







Cheers

Nice finish Deano
Done a couple of 72 builds in the last month or so and once you get use to glueing the small parts going back to 1/35 seems massive.

Very fine work on the Ferdinand Dean!

How did you like the kit?


Kind regards, Sven.

Hi Karl thanks and good to see you again

Also thanks for your comment Sven , the kit builds well and is not bad for the money . I think the tracks and the lack of tread plate on the fenders are the worst things about the kit.
However it still builds into a nice model.

@Sturmgiest - Dean,

The Ferdinand is looking quite good and glad that you have finally found the "One True Scale!" For a great bunch of people that work in this scale, why not join us in the Armor/AFV-Braille Scale forum. People there are always happy to see more work in this scale and usually quick to comment.

Cheers,
Jan
