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
Deano

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.

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
