buildingmymodel Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 (edited) Hi all, Like a challenge so I joined a 48 hour group build the other weekend, and decided to go for a Tamiya 1/48 Sherman "Easy Eight". First time ever I built a tank. And first time in a time limited group build. The part count was a little .... high for a 48 hour build. But the kit is just great. See the result here: And the build here: Please hit the like button, and leave your comment. Edited March 30, 2021 by buildingmymodel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stikpusher Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 Tamiya 1/48 armor kits are perfect for “speed builds”. And since US tanks usually have just an overall OD scheme that makes them an ideal choice as well. Less time spent on changing colors in the airbrush cup. Yours turned out very nicely!

buildingmymodel Posted March 30, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 Thank you Stikpusher, and yes I'm quite satisfied. And glad I didn't have to do a three color camo on top of everything else. And sure the Tamiya 1/48 line seem to be amazing, you shake the box and it's almost done (except for all those wheels that needs tidying up and painting lol. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
