Beautiful work sir

Soeren,
The sprocket and track alignment look good in your video. The track does have too much slack so there is no tension to pull the track onto the sprocket at the top of the run. Try removing a track link or two to see if that will help. At proper tension, the track should only just touch the top of the second road wheel back from the sprocket.
regards,
Painless

No no, it is the teeth only bite into the tracks when pressed into them. I recognised that half a year back already with the blank pieces... Now after painting it is even worse. the track is not yet closed, so there is of course slack. This was just a quick assembly to get a feel and see how Colors match.

Good afternoon,
I see the gap at the bottom of the one roadwheel now and I stand corrected on your track tension. Some sprocket sets do not work with some track sets. If the manufacturer of both is the same, you can go back to them or get out your flats diamond file and start taking a little off of the width of each tooth.

I have the bad Feeling that this might be the case here

Mr Soeren could you just source some correct sprockets? I had a very similar situation with a Taigen panther with Mato metal tracks and sprockets that did not mesh well. I swapped them for a correct set. You could file them down to make for a smooth mesh so as to not have to repaint them. all the best keep us posted

[Soeren]

I bought everything complete at RCTANK.de now I tryed my Panther track and that fit better. I will write Dominique about it. The Tracks I put on the Jagdpanther didnt fit well on the Panther either. So it is the tracks being a bit too short in the links. They can Stretch but only under force.

The filtering and weathering have tied everything together really well, Soeren. The detailing, paintwork and effects combine to make something very special, it's a model to be proud of! I'll admit that I was a little skeptical of the camouflage colours at first, but seeing it on the finished product outdoors has really turned me around. It's amazing how well it blends into your garden greenery.

[Soeren]

Fascinating isn't it. You can be sure, I was veeeery skeptical myself after seeing the Reseda painted on for the first time. But now it is much better. Some grime and dirt is still to come I work in layers upwards. Funny enough, when I am cycling through along the fields, you get all these shades of green and even sand colour now, with the early grass turning from bright green into dark green and yellow.

Also what I found a very useful experience is praying heavily thinned down acrylics over the tank as a filter. You can even spray runners like that and it is a welcome addition to the technique pools besides dot filters or the wash filter.

In Australia, it's mostly shades of brown.
