Oh no, you built a Cyber Hobby limited kit. A lot of collectors are forced to commit suicide 😛
On a more serious note 🙂 your Panzer III looks great. I like the weathering especially the sand effect.

Oh, thanks 🙂 I did to much chipping though.

It looks really great. what technique did you use for chipping affect?

Patrik Spett
I used a bit of a sponge, not the hairspray technique.

I also like the sand effect. And I don't think you overdid the chipping. Like it!

second the coments before, just nice 👍
It seems like you´ve soldered the fenders. Have you used a soldering iron for that?

Yes I soldered the fenders with a soldering iron. It is really hard because when the solder melt, the part can move just a tiny bit and ruin everything, so I had to redo the soldering several times on some parts. Worst was to solder the rods that uphold the fenders and I had to use epoxy on those. I figured out that I must get a more blunt tip for my soldering iron as the pointy tip does not give out enough heat where I need it. Also discovered that if I use both soldering and CA glue I have to solder first because CA glue breaks if heated. 🙂

That´s exactly what I experienced, for a few joints to be soldered the soldering iron is acceptable, but as soon it´s getting more complex it turns into pain... Brass does carry the heat away pretty well, so far not really surpising. We´ve got a chap in our forum, who is really into soldering and PE. He does recomend a small blow torch. If you like take a look into his never ending therad 😉 wettringer-modellbau..ID=616260#post616260

I've soldered before with a storm lighter.

And it worked? Tell me more... 😉
Actually we´re making fun of someone using a lighter in one of the last few pages. 😮

It works and if you're not careful it'll burn through the PE.
