Modeling Armor of Operation "Iron Swords"

Worked on the upper hull and pinning the boom and bucket so they are workable today. I’ll have a break then make a start on the crew cabin.

Very impressive and huge kit :flushed_face: :flushed_face:

Lots more progress today. Only the hydraulic lines and extra ones I’ll are need doing.
The tracks,boom,bucket, door cab roof are dry fit, which is amazing for a resin kit of this kind.

There are the extra armour for the boom, but they will go on after painting.

I need to drill and secure the turret to the track base, so it is still movable.

Love the build, looking forward to the weathering.

Out of interest, where did you order this, please? Ive tried Slypi's Details - Balaton Modell Shop

Cheers

I ordered directly through a direct message on FB

Or, drop Peter an email, if you look through his FB posts about this kit he posted it. I’m sure Balaton will have it eventually, but by the sounds of the number of orders, it might take a bit while Peter works through the direct orders. He is also working on his own website I believe.

Shot-Kal.

My favourite IDF tank along with all the conversions after

I always like pictures from Centurions and Magachs, but could you please stay on the topic? You could start a new threat, like the Sherman one

BTW What are the tube things at the Magach

Why cant we get a good production variant of the Eitan instead of the prototype from hobby boss

I don’t think the IDF is ready to let somebody measure up, there New wheeled APC. Especially in the current situation.
And then they will let their preferred Model manufacturer have the information for a kit.
