Title: My on-going weird war oddessy: E-10, E-25 & E-25 SPW
Post by: Ballardian on October 07, 2018, 03:41:16 PM
 Here are a few more for the motor pool - they were finished a while ago but I hadn't posted any pics because for some reason or other the paintjobs didn't really enthuse me, they're ok but I can't help but think I could come up with something better...
 They're the excellent JTFM E-Series models (please hurry up & do the 75/100) which are a pleasure to assemble & paint (just make sure you use the right primer - in the UK, Halfords plastic primer works fine).
 My only problem is with the gun barrel on the E-25, which being quite thin, is a little bendy - I'm considering replacing it with either a plastic barrel from a Rubicon Panther (it's the same gun after all, without the muzzle brake) or a turned metal KwK 38 L60 (in 1/48 it's close enough) for a Pz III Ausf J from RB Models - once I've finished the current batch of models for Call of Cthulhu I'll decide.
 Next - another couple of Panther Ausf F's (one with 'Russian Rollers').

Beautiful work!  You make resin kits look appealing.  I'm not usually a fan, but those turned out well!

 Cheers chaps, there may be a delay on the Panther F's as the postal service seems to have eaten the MNH stencil I ordered from Uschi Van Der Rosten for the overlay pattern (see my first Ausf F, back on page 4)- looks like I'll have to order another.
