Czech Hedgehogs, (Tank Traps), W.I.P.

Post by Mad Fox »

Thought I would post my W.I.P of a Czech Hedgehog I have been working on, this one is a "Test" Piece, basically I have built it from lengths of Plastic right angled strip and plastic card, I used a small broken drill bit in and light slow forwards/ backwards motion to replicate the seam welding. overall it still needs some tidying up to do before painting, thought you guys might like to see and give some comments on how the whole thing looks and give any ideas you may have for improvements.
need to figure out how to make scale barbed wire as I have another project in mind but will save that for later.

The W.I.P....

My Tank commander bust with the Hedgehog to give you an idea of the size of the tank trap...

Close up of the seam welds, (your thoughts on these would be of great value).
