Jagdpanzer IV Ausf.F /1:25/ Modelik 11/06

Now frame is ready. Engine is almost ready.
IMHO shell look attrractive. There are 44 shells. But I make only one of them.
Model has some mistakes - holes in part K5 is much longer then needed.
Engine has some small errors (some parts are just a 0.5mm bigger then need)

I was ill for three weeks =( and stay at home.

I saw photo of Demon's model. Photos are very poor.
Demon run for one month before me.

p.s. I don't understand the desire to glue nuts on all parts. I mean reducer in cylinder box.

Selection is show much bigger hole then needed.

You can find so many details there.
Do You plane to use laser-cut tracs ?

All photos by Demon was made with "backfocus".
Focusing plane is far away from object. Object contour is not sharp. But backplane is sharper then need. I don't want read content of acrylic paint, I want see good making small part in front plane.

Yes. I have laser cuts tracks for PIV and I will use them.

I will try to make main parts like original.

I was made 44 shells. I found some problems - detail 18 have no fornt cover. Marked position for placing detail 14 is shift to front by 4mm. Detail 14 mounted to close to detail 12. Details with number 9 must be shifted both into center for 4mm each!

P.S. I am need quality interrior photos of the Panzer IV/Jagdpanzer IV (800x600 or greater).
Please send me it or send me link to them or place it here.
Thank You!

P.P.S. Merry Christmas! :yahoo:

Shells was originally print with metallic colour. I simply use acrylic "gold" paint for white edges. Beacause paper was 80g/m2 - I am used three circles (diameter of each 4.4, 3.5, 3.5mm cutted from cardboard 0.5 mm thick) and glu them inside each shell to make it more hard...

Thats's all folks... =)

Happy New Year!

Two days was fly away.
springs was cut from whole black cardboard.

I make teeth by cutting with Olfa knife.

Interior was done. (I spent many time for found interior photos... There are so small inforn\mation about it =(

I must glue some wires between blocks of radiostation.

stripeless barell and gears with teeth. All are moving in 2d.
I remake ugly MG42 from original to this one. I am used my photos of MG42 from museum of the Poklonnaya Gora.

And more MG42... All windows was cutted. I am use thin metallic paper 80g/m2. I think it look more realistic.

Thank You, All!

All perscopes has mirrors from.."metallic" paper from package Colgate toothpaste :). All vision slots are cut trough.
