Here's a couple of photos of Dragon's Recce 38(t), great little model afflicted with a few more trouble spots than usual. The suspension (steps 1 through to 6) can be a source of frustration if it's rushed. The hull has a few inaccuracies as Terry Ashley has already pointed out. The kit supplies you with 2/3rds of an interior, very nicely detailed and all told looks the part once completed. You can view Terry's review here...
http://www.perthmilitarymodelling.com/reviews/vehicles/dragon/dr6294.htm I'll have a built-up review ready soon.





Please feel free to comment and to add your experiences with the kit.

thanks,
Frank

Nicely built up, Frank.

How did you find the fenders? It looks to me like Dragon have outsmarted themselves, supplyin' a jig but not allowin' 'em to be fitted properly, once they're 'kinked'.

It sure is a cool looking vehicle, I wonder if Dragon will do what they have done in the past and revisit this kit to correct the fenders error, personally I think it highly likely they will and we will have a "premium" version within the year.....

I love both the 38(t) chassis and Dragon's new 2cmm turret with the mesh roof, so what's not to like.... That's a lot of stuff going on in a very small area, looks great so far!

Frank,

Please let us know when your review is out. I just got my copy of the kit and would welcome your impressions on the build. I probably won't start mine until summer. So far your build looks really good.

Thanks, -zon

Sorry for the delay folks, I haven't been home for a while,

Paul,... your best bet is to leave the fenders as is, don't mess about trying to shape the fenders, or if it's a must, wait till one of the A.M. P.E. sets come out.

Zon,... my review should be up soon... I hope...

thanks for the comments,

Frank
