The best solution I found for a low rpm rotary tool was getting an cordless electric screwdriver and buying a chuck to mount dremel bits on it

it won't be the strongest bond but tamiya's thin glue will (eventually) work its way through paint to make a bond

the straightforward solution is to pony up for a workable set of tracks, paint them and then slide them on over the wheels and sprockets

yeah the ones i got from t-rex studios for my t-55/type 59 rock, way better than the workable tracks miniart sells for their own kit lol

you can get an organic vapor respirator as well to be double sure

i like link and length when they give you an axle alignment tool like tamiya usually does. otherwise something ends up slightly out of whack and ruins the whole look in my experience

I'm not much of a photographer but step one of my tank 390 diorama is now complete. onto crew figures and then the gate it'll be crashing through on 4/30/75    lot of firsts for me on this project though tbh my process was largely just following night shift's t29 videos lol. clutch material in this was tissue paper which made the (hard to see) torn mantlet cover and after a dozen attempts an acceptable NLFSV flag e: and i just noticed i forgot to put the clear lens in the headlamp lol Raskolnikov38 fucked around with this message at 22:10 on Mar 9, 2024 |

the tamiya 1/350 fletcher is nice, I liked it better than the trumpeter kit

i have the opposite problem of charging in ahead, not liking how it turns out, and then redoing it until i need to rebuy the kit from the damage i've done

ColonelJohnMatrix posted:Thanks to the goon who several pages ago recommended I build a Tamiya Fletcher as my first 1/350 ship. I have finished the build, not just have to add paint. I'll probably get out the airbrush next week. In the meantime, time to figure out which ship to build next! looks great. one thing i love about the tamiya kit is that they put the rubber gimmicks they use to make tank tracks rotate freely into the fletcher's turrets so you can spin them around. the trumpeter kit has you glue them in place

I just use a needle that I cut the eye of in half to make a Y shape to hold the glue

my type 59, tank 390 project is finally complete. and by complete coincidence* i finished it on the anniversary of the fall of saigon.      album with the rest of my photos here: https://imgur.com/a/apUpqZE e: album of some of the reference photos i used https://imgur.com/a/wW0lgWq *this would have been finished months ago if i didn't decide i needed to paint each part of the project 3 or 4 times until i got sick of it Raskolnikov38 fucked around with this message at 19:40 on Apr 30, 2024 |

miniart type 59 with trumpeter soviet tank figures. I used a vinyl cutter to do the styrene patterns for the gatework rather than pay $200 for the lasercut set someone in vietnam is selling lol
