Hi Andy the Stugs looking good :thumbup: the only supplier of a tool for the waffle pattern is imperial modelbau in Germany http://www.imperial-modellbau.de/shop/index2.htm look under Modellbauwerkzeug page 3 (it will not allow direct linking :'( ) looking at the pics it should be easy to make your own ;)


Cheers Ian

Just wondering...........wouldn't the remote mg as it is currently mounted stop the hatches from opening?
I'll go and stand in the corner if I've missed something. :{

Cheers

Hi I have made a tool to stamp the waffel pattern into the milliput zimmerit . The tool is a square piece of hardwood with the design cut into the end . I did varnish it to help stop the milliput sticking to it . The actual zimmerit looks better through the eye rather than the picts .
