1/35 MaK Gustav [Complete]

[Maschinen Krueger]

This is a D3 1/35 Gustav resin kit obtained from the winter WonderFestival in Japan. Honestly, how can you guys work in 1/35 scale? Everything is so damn small. I can't even see some of the details that need to be painted on the figure.

Bagged Kit



Parts



Primer



Paint - Airbrused Tamiya Acrylics in a familiar scheme



Markings



Base - I don't have much in the way of 1/35 accessories, so the setting will be pastoral.



Pilot - A mix of Dragon figures that I've had in the spares for the past 16years.



This kit is hard to found, but the good news is, the new Hasegawa 1/35 Nutrocker/Nutcracker will include a 1/35 Gustav and a 1/35 Melusine. Sweet!

Looking good, I like the "Panzerfaust"

Nice I want more

Thanks Biskup and Tobias. It's a NeuPanzerfaust. It's from the future.

Perk up little SDR pilot, why do you look so worried?



The sad looking little SDR pilot has been painted an installed. I had a real hard time painting this guy even with my 4/0 brush. Once again, I limited myself to what could be done on the face in about an hour. That's all I want to spend, so if I want my faces to look better, I need to learn to mix paint faster. I applied a MIG Filter for German Gray which is a bit blue, so even the Gustav is a little blue now. Don't be blue little Gustav, you're fighting days are almost over.

Groundwork has been airbrushed with acrylics. Grass is static grass and seaweed fibers.

Say "Hello" to my little Gustav.
