hi chaps!

today a little report of the work's advances in the Panzodrom

step by step, the light is seen at the end of the tunnel... We are already finishing the final form of the river, riverbed and its channel. Also the location and orientation of the stone bridge is done, and is almost finished the platform where will run the train tracks, the french town, and the river harbour area ...





the rake marks the direction and location of the stone bridge





Making the excavations to be able to place the concrete blocks where the bridge will fit



the bridge in place





And the most noticeable and important part in my opinion... raked 35% of the yard and that does not look like the Mars surface anymore!

The raked part is clearly visible and the one that has not yet been touched too:





that's all for today.

thanks for watching

Steady progress there Jussek.

As I said on FB - looking forward to world r/c tank day !!

Paul what is this world RC tank day you speak of....

on the first page i saw Dragon's teeth, did you make them yourself? i have been wanting to make them in 1:6 for a while (now to get back to page 2 and read some more....)

EDIT

just saw them on page 4? so they are made from plaster? if i can get good info on them (drawings/specs), i am planing to make them in concrete and put a large nail in it before it starts to cure this way i can push them into the ground as these guys run over just about everything if they don't shoot/paint it (they are armed with painball guns)

It's a possible event on the south coast of Spain when Jussek and his tank crew have finished the battlefield

Preferably at a time a Moto GP round is on

hi mate

the first of them ware made with resin and already painted, but our friend who did the mould and also was working with resins is out of busines, so we are building them now in plaster, it's easier and chipper for us. On the next batch i will try to put some black colorant on the plaster so they become grey and i wil not have to paint them

hi chaps

some little advance in the works of the myriad items i have yet to paint... none of these objects is finished yet















and now, some more positions and scenes for the yard.

The second 15cm NbW41 will be towable, so the scene will represent the crew placing it in position



marking the tire traces



it will look something like this when finished



and the last of today, the making of an observation post, with field binoculars S.F.14.Z.Gi H6400, a Torn.Fu.d2 and a map's table...









right now the cover nets and their poles are drying up, next week i will took more pictures.

best regards

Looking excellent keep up the awesome work I admire your dedication to the hobby
