Cody Grayland Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 (edited) New to the Forum, but, not to the hobby. Built from the old Tamiya kit - approximztely 300 machined and scratchbuilt gooh-gahs including the entire engine and compartment, early(clip together)Fruilmodellismo tracks, On The Mark P/E engine grill, Verlinden dry transfer turret markings, etc...the drill.Hope you enjoy.Cheers,Cody Edited November 15, 2006 by Cody Grayland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cody Grayland Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 (edited) Seams on the Svezda towing hooks were left untouched as that more closely replicated the crudely cast items typical on T-34's.

Scott Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 Wow Cody - very nice. I really like the worn, rusty look of the steel roadwheels - not an easy thing to replicate well. Thanks for sharing and look forward to seeing more of your work!Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Baker Posted November 18, 2006 Author Share Posted November 18, 2006 Cody,Glad you're here. That is really a beautiful model. The detail work is really impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cody Grayland Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 (edited) Thanks for the welcome, guys.Built this early 70's-vintage Tamiya Stug III about a dozen years ago, long before Tamiya released their current new tool. At that time, I was still learning about armor and what the aftermarket offered, therefore, the P/E intake grills from 'On The Mark' were the only P/E used. Model still has the 'rubberband' tracks but also has many scratchbuilt and machined fiddly-bits to keep him ineresting. Overall, I think he's still a passable shelf model.Cody Edited November 20, 2006 by Cody Grayland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bernie Brule Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Nice to see some old friends here. Not to mention the superb models...Thought I would post a picture of my full option 1/16th Tamiya Tiger. It's modelled after "Das Reich" Tiger S01 that fought at the Battle of Kursk in July 1943. It's stock except for idler wheel bushings, a gear reduction kit and metal tracks. Oh yes and I reinforced the bottom of the hull to accomodate the additional stress from the metal tracks.I can build them but unfortunately, I can't paint them. This one was professionally painted. I've got a King Tiger on order... The wait is killing me.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
