It's good to be up at going. I started my 1/48 Bandai/Fuman Wespe this evening. It's an old kit, and there are some undesriable features. The manufacturers logo is molded onto the chassis. The wheels are one sided, with a blank disc at the rear.
I've made the decision to sacrifice a Tamiya Panzer II and use the wheels, link and length tracks and whatever else I can use. I'll have to order one, strangely I've never seen the kit in Australia. It did start me thinking that Tamiya will inevitably release it, as they have done the Panzer II now, and they've done a 1/35 Wespe recently enough to have all of the info that they need at hand.
Anyways, here's the obligatory starting shots, and a view of the chassis after the logo has been sanded off, and some work to fill a few ejection pin marks and the inevitable gap that is left above the tracks. That's it for tonight.
Sorry about the dreadful photography, it's near midnight and I need to hit the sack, so I'm not gonna re-do them.
Cheers
Tony
