The Panzerkampfwagen II or Panzer 2 as it was more commonly known, was originally introduced to German Military service in 1936 as a stop gap tank which could be used whilst more advanced and powerful designs were being developed.
It saw service on both the western and eastern fronts, whilst also being used in North Africa. It was ultimately removed from active front line duties by 1942 however, with the introduction of bigger and better tanks. Those that did remain in service were used in support or training roles.

These Matchbox kits were always phenomenal value. The idea of a kit including diorama base and figures for no extra cost (as they originally were) is so good. Good kits too. Well done Revell for continuing the whole package.

When I were a lad my 50p pocket money covered one Matchbox kit with 15p change for sweets, so I have very fond memories of this kit. Nice build, well constructed , painted and weathered. I usually use Seraphim Sepia for the wash, but the Nuln Oil looks really good, I might switch. The tracks always have loads of mould release agent so need very thorough cleaning after which they can be superglued. I like to glue to the toothed sprocket first and then glue to the top of the wheels/track guides adding a bit of track sag (might need to make sprue spacers to temporarily force the tracks to sag until the glue has set. The Matchbox or Revell rebox tracks can be gently stretched if they are too tight, or a very quick dip in boiling water will shrink them, but take care and go slowly, they can shrink so tight that they'll snap the wheels off! (I know from personal experience). Oddly Airfix 'rubber band' tracks don't shrink in boiling water. Also keep the boiling water away from your paint job, it might not damage it, but why risk it! With a bit of practice (and maybe some strategically placed weathering) those old rubber bands can actually look pretty decent. :)

Idea for a painting / spray station. A cheap / second hand PC case with a clear side Pair of gloves Get rid of the guts of the case - drive shelves etc. to leave an empty box. Cut two circular holes in side, stick cuffs of gloves to circumference of holes. Voila. You can then put the model and spray can inside the case, close the lid, put your hands in the gloves and spray with your lungs intact :) BTW you're better at dioramas than you think!

The annoying thing with these kits from Revell, is that they were originally Matchbox kits, which were originally designed for younger modellers, and, as such, came with very carefully designed, 'idiot proof' pictorial instruction booklets, with easy to undestand symbols, etc. Revell ditched all that, and used their own. Unless there are particularly fiddly parts, I don't bother with the Revell instructions on their ex-Matchbox range. - I made the originals in the 1970's and 80's, and kept a lot of the original paperwork. Oh, and it's always a good idea to paint PVC tracks completely, with acrylic paint, before fitting; the PVC can sometimes react with styrene, and either dissolve it, or undergo a chemical change, and become friable and crumbly, so, instead of tracks, you have dust.

Thought re instructions.. maybe advise people to cross out options / parts they don't intend using? That way when it comes to fitting them together nobody accidentally uses the wrong part(s). Only including a closed option for the turret also avoided the bullet (pun intended) of having to mould an interior. Given the age of the kit that would be unlikely.

It does have a habit of clogging, I find that you have to replace the lid asap after each use

@Ghryst 3 жыл бұрын

a sewing pin down the end of it, replaced immediately after use - use this method to get halfway through the bottle before its stuffed. good glue, but too thick/air-reactive for the needle applicator

So why you didn't put matte varnish on the finish ? , too gloosy look at the end

why don't you put some glue on a piece of aluminum foil, so you can apply the glue with a cocktail stick? you can be much more precise that way.

@ModelMinutes 4 жыл бұрын

Because I had neither cocktail sticks or tin foil available at the time I built this

Ha ha ha. We still forget to follow the instructions, don't we? Like having to cut the arms off a pilot to get him to fit, because he wasn't put in first. Just a friendly jibe.
