Tamiya Pak40

This is the one for the question I asked the other day in the dio section. It will be paired w/a Sd.Kfz. 251 Ausf. C(Dragon #6187) in a dio showing the crew hopping out and trying to quickly set up the gun. Anyway, it's the 2nd one I've done, and construction took a little over 3 hours.

My first Tamiya model so many moons ago. A heck of a lot easier then the AFV kit I've got.

You might want to putty and sand that seam on the barrel. Wink

Looks like it went together cleanly with perhaps the exception of the seam on the barrel. You've also got some mold seams still present on some of the larger parts (common on the older kits) like the breech activation lever that the camera is showing up. If you are careful, you can use a sharp #11 tip to remove those and it will improve the overall look once you've got paint on.
