WWI St Chamond tank.

(1/5) > >>

Tim Mixon:
Would anyone happen to have a Takom 1/35 St. Chamond Kit ? Early version with the three raised access hatches on the top front. I need scans of the instructions if possible. I purchased a 1/72 3-D print model that has terrible print lines all over. I’m going to cut off and sand down all the exterior detail to get rid of the print lines and then scratch build it all back.
Any help with details would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Tim

Herb Collector:
You can download the instructions from Scalemates.

A good history here with some good 5 view drawings.

Oh no...I cannot imagine how gorgeous a Tim Mixon tank will be! I'm afraid I can't help but I'm rather excited!

I built the Takom kit a while ago, here's some photos of the finished article that might help in your efforts:





And just for fun, here's how it ended up, stuck in a shellhole (just like the originals....):

Tim Mixon:
Beautifully done sir!  Lots of eye candy to reference for my build.  I’m waiting on some resin bolts/rivets to arrive before I begin.
