Couple of Braille scale projects

I just started a couple of new 1/72 scale builds. The first one is the Attack Hobby Schwimmkorper PzKpfw.38(t) light amphibious tank. Neat little vehicle that may have been developed to invade England during Operation Sea Lion. The tank kit is a little crude so I got the ExtraTech PE set and an Armo barrel to help detail out the tank.


The next project is an armored railcar used to patrol the railways in the Balkans during WW2. It is called a Steyer K 2670 Schienenpanzer. It’s about 3" long and a solid resin kit with some photoetch and smaller resin detail parts. It even includes a little railway base.

Sounds like a couple of cool builds , the pics are not working for em though.

Peaked my interest but I can’t see 'em either.

Same here! “X” marks the spot!

Neat kits [:)]

The pics are working now.

Neat kits. Can’t wait to see the finished builds.

awesome looks like your going to have a lot of fun.

I’ve always pretty much been fascinated by German armored railway cars.

That PE fret looks like it’ll be pretty challenging all by itself Major. Good luck with it and let us see the results!

Cool little armor, major. Sure looks like a fun build.

Interesting subjects Major, hope they turn out nice.

I like the armoured railcars too, I have a Dragon 1/35th one similar in my pile.

Now I can see! Interesting stuff!

At least the PE is not an ABER set. Still looks kinda tiny though. Yours eye must be better than mine.

Good luck. Have the headache pills handy Rob. Looking forward to the pics

Cant wait to see the finished products Rob!!

Those kits look very promising, Major Rob. Im looking forward to the finished models. Keep us posted, please. Thanks!

[#ditto] what everybody else said. Looks like a couple of fun projects. Looks like you scored some pretty neat prices on them. Congrats on that. Hope they are a lot of fun to build.

Ahh now there are pics. Looks like a couple of real cool builds Major. Don’t think I could trust myself with that little bitty PE though, Would wear my kness out looking for it on the floor.

Is it normal to have an uncontrolable shudder when you see the PE fret?
Gulp.
Good luck and keep us posted or at least have your family let us know what asylum you ended up in as the result. [;)]

I’m a sucker for a good deal. The first kit is being built for an experimental vehicle group build called “Project X” and includes prototypes, one-of-a-kinds, etc. The armored rail car is almost completed. Should have it ready for a primer coat tonight.

Looks like fun, Rob…the finished products should be cool!
