FineScale Modeler – October 2019

(Martin Jones) #1
▲ PETER ESPADA
CAMP HILL, PENNSYLVANIA
An MP urges an M103A1 to “move
it” in Peter’s 1/35 scale scene set
in Germany in February 1960. To
improve Dragon’s kit, he used
Voyager parts including photo-
etch and a turned-metal gun,
added Value Gear stowage and
Tamiya jerrycans in Def.Model
racks, and installed a Verlinden
.50-caliber machine gun, M.V.
Products lenses, and stiff wire
antennas with a fine paper signal
flag.

LINDSAY, ONTARIO,
CANADA
Dragon’s 1/35 scale Panther
Ausf A looks at home in the
late-winter mud thanks to
Bart. He detailed the German
tank with Aber photo-etch, a
Panzer Art turned-metal bar-
rel, and Friulmodel metal
tracks. Hairspray weathering
produced the worn white-
wash over the camouflage;
other weathering was added
with artist oils, enamels, and
pigments.
