JagdPanther by Robert T

Post by mrTyko »

What a wonderful day it is today, the sun is shining and beautiful weather I have.
What could be better? Yes, a shipment from Armortek. 4 boxes of my JagdPanther arrive today.
A Big thank you to everyone at Armortek, for their fine work on this model.
Tomorrow the fun starts, then I will spend more of my time in my mancave.

A very happy Robert.

Now the fun begins.
Clean all pieces with IPA and some light sanding, before Etch primer.

Have washed and primed the chassis.
Started by making brass bushings for the suspension assembly.
I do love to work with brass, in my opinion brass is a wonderful material to work with.

Have a nice day to you all.

I continue to make brass bushings.
Only because I think brass is such a good and easy material to work with.

Today we've had wonderful weather, so I took the opportunity to wash and prime paint all the road wheels.
I also washed with thinner after the ultrasonic wash.
