Static Jagdtiger

[panzerrob]

Hi guys,

Here is a Wecohe Jagdtiger I finished a year ago:







I am not a scratchbuilder, nor do I have equipment to make parts myself, so I use as much original parts as possible.
That is why I installed the Tamiya Idler wheel parts!

Then detail parts were next:

And installed it looks like this:

The top of the casemate, with a figure:



And more crewmembers:

Then some color on the beast, a primer from Vallejo:




Next came another favorite of mine (the other is figure painting): soldering!


When I use super glue, I'll glue parts to my fingers, when I solder, I burn my fingers!
I think my fingers hate me!

Yippie, figure painting time:



I think it looks close enough!

Then it was time for more paint on the Jagdtiger:

And then, a lot of Fallschirmjager landed in my hobbyroom:

And the final result is this:





I hope you like it!

With regards,

For those same reasons I use a Butane Torch (Dremel Make a nice one) Liquid solder (Fryolux) and a paintbrush, No pain (Unless you lick the paintbrush, Fryolux is very toxic ) a great finish and just so easy.
You have built a great model even if it did hurt a bit
