Pics taken at the Military museum, located inside the walls of the historic Belgrade Fortress. My local museum

Oh boy, Dusan! There are several unique vehicles there that I would love measurements and photographs of such as:

Polish TK (a miracle a Pole hasn't bought this one yet)

Sd.Kfz. 250 with PaK38

CV-35

Oh boy, oh boy...

Regards,

Awesome stuff Dusan. And cool pictures. If you are looking for more references the new Nuts and Bolts book on half tracks is very very good.

Great choice of a model to build, Dusan: I like halftracks a lot! :dude Must be cool to have a war museum near your place - so many things to see first hand. :coolio Here where I live we also get stupid hot days, with 41 - 42 degrees Celsius: it's most uncomfortable! :vmad :pinch:

Cheers and good luck with your build: I'll be following your work! B)

After more than two months, losing the will or my mojo to build something, last week I returned to this build becouse it is the end of the campaign very soon, so I'll try to finish it


This is latest update on L4500R build,I had no problems, great fit, really superb tool.

I leave tracks like this for easy access and painting.

in progress, I have to clean up some parts and to make them thinner.

Thanks for looking!
All the best!
Dusan.

Flu has disrupted my plans for the weekend :angry: I managed to do at least something, tomorrow I will work on the cargo area, 20-30 parts more and assembly is complete :dance

Cab and canvas sanded down and primed

Thanks for looking!
All the best!

I get some of my best work done when home sick! Glad to see this getting some love. Hope you kick those germs but good, Dusan!

 

[Dusan]

Thanks for the support guys! I really appreciate it!!! :drinks
I feel much better now, just blocked nose.

I managed to finish the assembly and start with primer today. This is the current look, and now I plan to paint with black/red-brown mix/ and to start with cammo.

Thanks for looking!
All the best!

You can avoid knocking the tracks off if you don't run over stuff laying in the road Doo. :laugh:
