Tamiya valentine

[Dan]

Started this a few days ago.
Typical Tamiya kit as far as fit and simplified details.
I have a Passion PE set, Bronco tracks and a Aber barrel.
I almost changed the front to a Canadian built cast hull but changed my mind.

Another classic build in the works.

[Dan]

I’m wondering how the Bronco and AFV Club kits stack up?

[Tank_1812]

Not my jam but based on the companies history better detail and more parts.

[Dan]

I believe you’re right.

I built the Bronco kit and the entire engine deck and rear hull is a hot mess.
I’ve been told the AFV Club kit is not easy.

[Dan]

Thanks, good to know.

FWIW - from reading reviews, I concluded a Tamiya would make for a happier Valentine’s Day build experience in the model workshop and went with Big T.

Turret done.

[Dan]

Paint is on. I used Tamiya’s Red Brown 2 for SCC2.

Nice build.
