George Bacon shares with us images of his 1/35th scale Flammpanzer I at Tobruk in 1941. This is modelled using the old HPM kit with some of the Eduard photo etch made for that kit.

Very nicely done!! How did you manage to get the decals to sit so well over the hatches?? The weathering looks great!

Obg153, the decals were hit with Microsol, which settled them down pretty well. After that dried, a little slicing along the seams with a sharp blade and another application of Microsol finished the job.
