This is the Trumpeter Neubau-Fahrzeug chassis #3 through #5 kit (overall grey) and the Cyber-Hobby/Dragon chassis #2 kit (brown camo). Germany built 5 of these experimental tanks in the 1930s and they saw some combat (and served as propaganda tools) in the Norway invasion.

The models are not quite done yet. I need to clean up some of the weathering and add the headlight lenses. The Dragon kit was spray painted with Tamiya German Grey spray paint and camouflaged with Tamiya acrylic paints airbrushed onto the base coat. The Trumpeter kit was done with German Grey acrylic and the airbrush.

I don't have a great place to take photos in my apartment; these were done on the stove top.

The two kits before painting. I glued the Dragon link tracks in place beforehand. The Trumpeter kit has workable, pinned link tracks

... Nice work David.

On the seventh day while God rested, we overran his perimeter, stole the globe, and we've been running the whole show ever since.

To post an image of your models, you will first need to find somewhere to host your photos on the Internet. Your ISP will often give you a limited amount of free web storage, and other online photo storage is also available.

To post a link or an image, simply type in the URL (web address) of the destination page or image. The URL will appear as a link (for an HTML link) or an image (if you link direct to a .jpg file) when posted. You can use the Preview facility to see how your message looks before posting to Plastic Pix.

Please try to keep image sizes to 800 pixels wide or less, as larger sizes will be too big to fit on many computer screens. Also, file sizes should be kept to around 100kb or less, otherwise download may be very slow.
