Completed 1/35 Maus. Things didnt go as planned
Hi everyone !
This 1/35 Maus with full interior kit from Trumpeter I can finally say (kinda) complete. I use mostly Ammo Atom paints with Tamiya Primer. There are lots of things I learn'd from this, as it is my first full interior kit.
Ammo mig paints react with white spirit, which, I learn it too late and hard way
Since it is a HUGE kit, I try to improve my weathering technique with learn to do sponge chipping, turns out the hardest part is resisting the urge to tap it excessively
Notice the huge gap on the top section, its because I didnt plan it thoroughly on how to display it, since it is a full interior kit and I have limited space so I just left it that way to show it off
Sorry its way too long to put it here, so all in all, its a good kit, very oversimplified kit I may say, I didnt plan it to look very beaten up like that but remember good ol' Bob said, we dont make mistake we just have happy accident.
Please feel free to leave some suggestions !
