Academy 1/35 Wirbelwind that I actually got around to finishing

Post by PrivatePublic »

Welp I actually made it :banana:

Had plenty of other stuff come up a while back and kinda forgot about this build but earlier this week I figured I should actually try and finish it so that I can say I completed more GBs than not.

The kit itself was alright. For the price I got it at the detail is decent though anyone looking for a truly accurate representation should look to something like one of the Dragon kits. It did certainly revive my hatred of vinyl tracks though considering the toughest primer I have still flakes off with handling. Overall a reasonably enjoyable build but there were quite a few minor but annoying fit issues and the detail is as I said, decent but nothing more. It builds into a decent representation of a Wirbelwind after slapping it together so it'll do :th:

For something that's been "slapped together" that's a really great result mate - very well done :clap:
