Mark Aldrich Posted April 23, 2015 Report Posted April 23, 2015 Current progress before back burnering due to review kit arriving...
Mark Deliduka Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 Excellent. I've always wanted to do one of these in 1/72 scale but nobody makes that type of turret in my scale. I can't even get an AMX-13 model either. Looking forward to seeing this one done when the review kit is finished.
Mark Aldrich Posted October 10, 2015 Author Report Posted October 10, 2015 Thanks...It was a really fun build and first using the hairspray technique so it was a learning experience also.
DennisTennant Posted October 17, 2015 Report Posted October 17, 2015 Nice job, Mark. Be proud. :m1helmet: 1
WildBill50 Posted October 18, 2015 Report Posted October 18, 2015 Nice job Mark. What color did you use for the sand color. I like how your tracks came out also. Bill 1
Mark Aldrich Posted October 18, 2015 Author Report Posted October 18, 2015 More thanks guys!!!! Model Master Radome Tan is my choice of color for most of my Egyptian builds. I was lucky with the Dragon DS tracks and having the ability to adjust the Tasca idler wheels. If this combo had not worked, I would have been assembling the Bronco version and I hear that is no easy task.
philp Posted October 21, 2015 Report Posted October 21, 2015 Mark A. She came out nice. I do love your Arab/Israeli stuff. There were a couple nice tanks at the Boise show. Mark D. Heller do the AMX-13 in the one true scale. Not necessarily the best of kits but the turret would be usable for a conversion. http://www.heller.fr/en/maquettes/scale-military-vehicles-model-classic/59-amx-13-105-3279510798746.html 1
Mark Aldrich Posted October 22, 2015 Author Report Posted October 22, 2015 Thanks Phil and it has been a great year and more coming for those of us that build MEW subjects.
Mark Deliduka Posted October 22, 2015 Report Posted October 22, 2015 Thanks for that info Mark! I had thought that was discontinued a long time ago since I could never find one. I'll have to look into getting about three or four of these.
Mark Aldrich Posted October 23, 2015 Author Report Posted October 23, 2015 Duke, Phil was the one to thank. However, even EvilBay only has them available from overseas. Squadron carries the AMX-30 in "I need an optivisor to see the hull" scale so maybe they might get some of the 13s as well.
