Litle changes on the battlefield today.

•  The Allies got some 75 ponders
•  Germany got 3 x Panzer III with turret skirt, their where for Panzers III with hull skirts. So I need to print 3 new hulls and why not print 3 turrets as well. 
• And another cute little tankkette polish TKS 
• Printed M5 Stuart Light Tank, like it and will print some more, probably 2 extra.

First layer coating Tiger 1 and Hetzer (38t), 3d printerded two M3 75mm GMC

Tiger 1 early edition and Hetzer will get medium/dark grey finish. Tiger 1 was printed in black PLA, use grey a base coating is always a good idea. I ordered 10 x 10 x 1mm Balsa wood for bases, hope they will arrive soon. Will glue two or three together and make nice sloop.

Look who is out on the Battlefield!

Look who is out on the battlefield! It's the Tiger 1 early edition, with 8.8cm Kwk 36 cannon. So the proper color for this model would be grey I guess(did a quick search). What a monster, by far the biggest tank in my arsenal . 😁

No the game rules, would be nice to have my own WW2 board game to play with my family/friends some day.

All my WW2 tanks/vehicles/mines

 

The hobby is growing fast, but most of the work is done by the 3d printer, modeling tanks from materials would be to hard and time consuming.

Painted some tanks, Sherman Firefly, Otter. etc

Some of my new tanks got there first coat of paint, now the imperfections are much more visible. The otter need most sanding and I ordered modeling putty to fix some problems on some tanks.  This batch of green turned out to be better than the first batch. 😃

You can clearly see that white/light grey PLA isn't the best color for dark color paint.

Got some new tank and other vehicles.

Got a new tank and other vehicles. They are fresh from the 3d printer, raw, broken, etc. They need some TLC!!! 💖
