Lou (@gardner), I really appreciate your tutorials and the time you take for prep. I've watched some YouTube shorts and end up fast forwarding a lot that stuff. What I find interesting is that the Pershing was so […] -
Fantastic job on those tracks, my friend @lgardner! -
Hi Louis (@lgardner): I have seen a lot of horror stories about tracks like this where every link requires extra attention. Multiply the effort on one link times 80 or 90 links per side, and it soon stops being […] -
That's a lot of sanding on all those individual parts, Louis @lgardner Definitely worth it, the tracks look great. -
Here is what I have been working on over the past few days. It's been really cold here lately, so I managed to sneak in some bench time. I'm using the kit supplied individual tracks on the Pershing. Each […] -
John vd Biggelaar (@johnb) Thank you my friend. I like to use Q Tip cotton buds like this when I'm trying to make the tracks sag. They hold the links in position while the glue dries. Please stay tuned […]

Spiros Pendedekas (@fiveten) Thank you my friend ! Much appreciated. 🙂

George R Blair Jr (@gblair) Thank you for stopping by. I appreciate your compliments too. I have got to the point where I like the individual track links. But over the last few days I have been working on […]

Stephen W Towle (@stephen-w-towle) First off thanks for the kind words. Yes you are correct about the Zimmerit being made from wood saw dust. I believe it was mixed in with a concrete like substance and used as […]

Great progress, Louis @lgardner Nice approach with the Q-tips to make the tracks sag.
-
Looks really awesome, my friend @lgardner!
-
Tank looks great, Louis (@lgardner). The Pz IV looks really nice with the paint and tracks. I haven't had the courage to try individual track links, so I look for either rubber tracks or link & length when I […]

Lou, I've been ghosting and following your Panther build. Seeing and reading your "Eureka" moment with the Zimmerit. I believe it was a paste made from saw dust and cement? Your progress on this whole project/ […]

Here are some more pictures from the progress on the Panzer Mk IV The kit comes with individual track links. Here I have assembled a short run of spare track blocks that will be mounted on the front […]

Tom Cleaver (@tcinla) Thank you Tom. I sincerely appreciate your comments. This has been a learning experience with the research I have been doing about not only the encounter, but the various units that were […]

Excellent progress on the Panzer, my friend @lgardner!
-
That's a great Panzer added to this project, Louis @lgardner All the work done so far is really impressive.
-
This is a really interesting project @lgardner, and you are doing some spectacular work here. -
Here’s a few pictures of the Sherman’s. Lt. Kellner’s tank is on the left side. The other one is the tank that I built the extra turret for. It has the older style turret installed now. This one s […]
-
The second Sherman has had the turret painted ODG and has the interior painted with a Gloss White color. This is how the real thing was done. I don’t have any pictures of it yet but I will take some and p […]
