All about AFV and related military model making.
Previously I posted an article about building on vacation, this year's project is ready for inspection. It's Tamiya's newest, a Panzer IV(70) A. That means a 70 something or other long 75mm gun on a panzer IV chassis made by the Alkett [...]
Ciao ragazzi, in this hot summer, at least here in Italia, I'm trying to make something...here my StuG IV from Academy; the kit is basically the old Tamiya kit but..with little bit less quality. Anyway here some pics of the not finish yet [...]
