Thanks so much guys for checking in on my progress with the An-Bri kit. Some weathering to do and I'll get it outside this weekend for some better photos and a video of the Taigen setup.

Cheers

After a very busy month at work I've finally had some time at home to tinker and enjoy the hobby. Took a short video of the An-Bri Hetzer with the Taigen electronics and also some photos outside.

Although the An Bri kit is in many ways what you may say "simple" and has a crude suspension system compared to my panzer 38-t build, it has performed surprisingly well outside and the wheels move freely and tracks quite smooth IMHO.

Thanks for checking in fellasImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImage

You build a really nice tank there. Speaking of the Panzer 38t. Do you have a nice outside Foto streak or a video of that tank?

Soeren I've sold it since I completed the panzer 38-t build so sadly only the photos and video from the panzer 38-t build thread on the forum are what I have :|

Thanks Mick you are too funny. Image

Actually Otto is a dear cat.....
Noooo :crazy:

Otto is simply a neat decal that came in the Blue Star Hetzer decal set. The Blue star hetzer will now be my sole focus. It came with three optional sets of decals and Otto seamed to fit this little guy.
Tanks alot.... :wave:
