Couple of Recent 1/72 builds WIP! M1070 HET scratchbuilt 1/72

Hello All, well Im pretty new here and thought I should go ahead and post some of my braille scale work a couple of years ago I did 1/35 but this is all I have room for anymore but Ive really taken a liking to it over the past couple of years. I hope you enjoy it let me know what you think the Halftrack is the Academy kit and the Jagdpanther is the Trumpeter Late version. And the last photo is my scratch built 1/72 M1070 HET It is in no way 100% accurate I got as close as I could in this scale, with my skill level in Scratch building but overall I was proud of it. Sorry for the bad pics I need a new camera.

EDIT: I promised doog I would post some more pics of my scratchbuilt M1070 HET Im working on the trailer this is for a diorama for Squadron Scalefest 2009.

They look good! Thumbs up [tup]

The jagdpanther is just ‘‘ubercool’’ and I think you managed to capture the ‘‘heaviness’’ of the originals nicely.

That’s 1:72? Wow, You must be a youngster with eyes like that. [bow]

Hamburglar, this is a realy impressive littel collection of kits!

MAn, that HEMMT is amazing! How much of it is scratchbuilt? Like, 100%? That is really outstanding! What did you use for the wheels? Was there a “base kit” that you used to model it on?

The other kits are super as well!

Thank you for the kind words guys, it means alot coming from a community full of so much talent.

Doog, to address your questions it is about 85% styrene and brass, the tires are from the Revell Germany Luchs they were a perfect match as far as Diameter, the other donor was they Wench system or pully system this was donated from the Revel Faun kit, other than that the frame, cab,Fuel Cells and all parts around it are styrene, I have some other pics of it I will post later when I get home, thanks again for the kind words.

Great! Outstanding work, once again–I’ll be looking for ward to seeing those photos! [:D]

Ok guys I posted some more of the M1070, as you can see the build is pretty much styrene accept for the tires and what not, its a little rough, but for my first real scratchbuild kit I think it came out alright. Thanks again for the kind words.

That HET is just about the coolest braille scratch I’ve ever seen (the only one…so it is the best!)

Good Job! Take home some awards for that one!

Superb work. I do like the Jagdpanther!

Cheers

Mike
