Re:WALKING TANK-GOT LEGS UPDATE 3-5-10 Looks great Terry. Are you going to design some shields for the legs too? Ruben

Re:Dragunov's 10,5cm Sturmhaubtize 42 Ausf.G Erik Excellent build so far. Any recent progress? Ruben

This really looks amazing Tom! You have taken your time with it but the result are worth waiting. Ruben

Hi guys. To all of you who took the time to comment and to give me a nudge in the right direction; many, many thanks! Your comments are alway welcome! Ruben

Excellent choice Dario. That engine begs to be detailed, are you going to do it? And don't worry too much for the tires, I would bet that once in place nobody will be able to see the seam line. Ruben

Wow Tony, those fender look very neat indeed. Are you planning to bent them a little or are aiming for the new and pristine look? Ruben

Top notch work Jose. Beautiful as always. Ruben

Thanks for the compliments guys, I'm glad you are enjoying it as much as I do. Dave that idea of the markings for the hydraulics is a good one, I'll roam through my stash of decals for something useful. And for those of you that feel the urge to do something like this; go ahead. Maybe we'll...

Wow at we are seeing real progress. That base looks terrific! The only thing that is missing are four American Hobbits hidding under the rock. :laugh: Don't stop now! keep painting! Ruben

Thanks for the comments guys. Well I finally had some time to work on it again so I applied the decals, painted the hydraulics, the tools (base color), the hull machine gun, periscopes and applied a little rust to the exhausts. I also put in place the hydraulic hoses. Here are the results...

Very nice build, it loks very good! The only thing that bothers me is the sagging of the tracks; I think it is too much. Ruben

Simply Excellent! Welcome. Ruben

Re:WALKING TANK-MACHINE UPDATE 2-12-10 Terry. I have to say that your tank is looking really great! But now I feel the urge to get one of those 3D printers 'cause I feel like a million years behind you! Ruben

Thanks Moon Puppy and Gary. Gary, the tracks and road wheels and everything else is permanently glued. The fit of the parts is so loose that I had to glue everything or take the risk of ending up with misaligned tracks. Ruben

Well friends, here is a small update. I glued the road wheels, sprockets, idlers and tracks and let the tracks set for a while. Then I glued the tracks to the wheels to give them their final form. The back received some extra treatment. I did the welds and decorated the jack block and the...

Re:Anthony's Elefant Are you going to paint the tracks apart? Ruben

Well Rusty, you could use this: http://www.primeportal.net/tanks/dmitry_kiyatkin/jagdtiger/ And the old Google search gives you some good WWII era photos too. Take care. Ruben

Thanks Raiderfan, it is the old Dragon Jagdtiger with Henchel suspension. I think it is the first one that Dragon released but I don't remember the catalog number right now. Ruben

Hi fellow modelers. It is time to start the build! And to start, the requisite date-stamped photo. A close up of the date. As always the first step is the most tedious so it's the one that should be done quickly. Here are all the wheels, sprockets and idlers cleaned and ready. Also the...

Massimo You have no idea how much Nutella is consumed in Puerto Rico. Ruben
