                        Big Smile [:D]Hello friends:

                        I am back again. I have finished the work faster than I thought. Only 2 days (15 hours) were necessary to build the Hotchkiss of Heller, 1/35.

                        Version: Hotchkiss (H35) Captured - 23th Panzer Division - (no marks and modified). Here are the pics, I hope you like them









                        In the following days I will start another work of a German tank

                        Best regards,
                        Rodolfo

                        very nice job on a somewhat offbeat subject.

                        Interesting subject, and well-rendered!

                        Looks like there's an engine under those grates. Is that part of the kit, or did you get an aftermarket kit. Or am I just seeing things?

                        Nice job, Rodolfo! I've got one of those on deck-hope it comes out as nice as yours (think I'll do French markings, though).

                        Thanks a lot for your kind comment, I really appreciate them!!. Regarding to some questions: the model does not have motor, is an effect of the oil that I applied on the grates and the chains is part of the accesories of the kit

                        I like it a lot. How was the kit?


                        Hello friend:

                        Thanks for your nice comments!. I had some problems as adjusting some parts (I used Humbrol-filler) and the tracks are many thin, the kit is regular

                        Best regards,
                        Rodolfo

                        I think the chain came with the kit. I have the Renault light tank and it came with the chain. It is one small tank!
