Hi all,

Reassemble KITS six years and only now decided to participate in a forum outside Brazil. I understand that I can learn a lot from all of this forum. If I may be able to exchange good ideas, especially on markings and a few models of military equipment from my country.

(excuse my English, I'm learning)

Thanks everyone

my last work...

Gercino Sátiro Welcome Sign Glad you joined.

Everyone is very helpful and will answer all questions with prompt accuracy. I know for a fact when I post a comment thats not 100% correct someone will look it up and set me straight. Hmm

Great looking M1 A1 tank you built. Which kit did you use?

Hello SuppressionFire,

I used the M1A1 Abrams "Iraq 2003" - Academy [13,202]. The kit is not very detailed, but their quality is not bad ...

This PANZER KLA is mounting

The tiny Panzer I command vehicle was the first kit as a adult that I built. Also a first for photo etch parts. I forget the origional manufacture of the kit but Dragon re-released it with the added PE parts and individual track links. Each link was joined to the sprew fraim with 5 stubs to cut and clean-up.

thanks Rick, Frank ...

SuppressionFire I had problems with this Panzer Command, especially with fittings parts .. I must admit that the end result was not very good .. Whistling

It looks good enough to finish. Im sure it must be the same kit, post some works in progress (WIP's) I had the same issues with the fit ect. The tracks are a lesson in frustration! Lots of lessons to be learned building that kit. Lesson #! is 'magic tracks' would save about 75 hours cleaning up the tracks provided.
