Hi folks! I've just posted some pics of my 250/9 built straight from the box (Tamiya). As usual, comments are most welcomed, so that I can learn from everyone!
You can see my pics under my name Floogen

Cheers!

looks really good Alan, the weathering is very subtle and very well done

but the tracks looks abit too clean, or maybe its just the shadows hiding the weathering?

good job!

I love it. I do see some silvering on the cross, but the weathering is supurb. Subtly realistic.

Thanks for the comments guys
The tracks have been weathered, but somehow the camera doesn't seem to capture it

Yea, now that you mentioned it Jeff, I can see what you mean about the cross I didn't even notice it until now LOL :-)

Cheers!

Eh, its pretty easy to fix, and even then, I hardly noticed it only after staring at the monitor an inch away counting rivets. I was up to 396 or something when I found the silvering and lost count...1..2..3..

Ciao floogen,
I built the same kit, but it didn't come out a beautiful as yours! Great job! I really like the weathering. Very nice! I think I recognize your PZIII from Track-Link.
Ciao for now
Rob
