Hi all
I present my new job. It´s a Hotchkiss H 39, a model of trumpeter Nro 000351 in scale 1/35. I made some change on the original model, change the gun for one of Heller. Now I show they the advances...

The target is a Hotchkiss H 39 40994 Nro 57 7e RC

Excellent work so far! Do you have any comment as to the accuracy and fit of the Trumpeter kit? The affordability has always been an attractive side of the kit, but I've been putting off buying one because of (perhaps unfounded) concerns about quality.

Nice clean job Omar.





I'm far from an expert, but I have the Bronco kit under way and just from a cursory look and going by what Terry Ashley and others have said, a lot of the details on the Trumpeter kit are simplified and look to be based on the Latrun example which seems to be partially refurbished and therefore not entirely accurate. Neither kit is anywhere close to 100% accurate I'm afraid. If you want something that is accurate, the only choice is the 3D printed kit from ETS35. It is however, quite pricey but is probably worth every penny. Someone really should do up an accurate series of 1/35th injection H-35s and H-38/39s.

The kit itself is fairly simple. You have to use putty and plastic to cover defective joints, should also see either version you want to do, because the kit is quite linitado. Personally he had already assembled a Hotchkiss see fit kit Heller, that although it is old and has no interior presents more detail than this. I bought it when it came out, personally I think it should look at other alternatives, the new Bronco is much higher than this.
greetings

Tanks, Kimmo. I think the same.

Excellent build and upgrade on it.

Cheers

Wow very nice. U putting that on a dio? Cause its screaming for one.

Very nice work! I really do like the look of the longer gun. I have the Bronco version and am looking forward to building it sometime before I'm 100 years old.

Those were some pretty impressive gaps to fill on the cast front!

Looks good. I may have to buy one for myself after seeing your build.

Grateful for the comments, it is an armored pleases me, and that makes you you add details, will go on a base with a piece of land and a figure to accompany ...
Let's see if the incentive to build one go progress ...

Some steps to painting, figure to accompany the Hotchkiss H39, a figure of Miniart Kit French tankers.
