Default Leopard 2A4 1:16 GPM

Well I finally got my hands on this model.I have been thinking of getting it for quite a while.
This is a monsterkit!! The model is 60cm long,23cm wide and 19cm high,so it's a huge construction!

Here are some shots.

Front page


The kit is in A3 format and contains 34 pages.
The first page is the usual instructions in Polish.


Then two pages of photos of the finished model follows.

The drawings are on 4 pages


Then 27 pages with parts follows.
First 5 pages with frames to be laminated to cardstock.



Then 22 pages with parts






A massive project.......

granted I believe that the Norse winters can be long and a bit more than I deal with but....Are you mad...I have seen the kit and...its just too much ...too repetitive...

but Ill stand back and let you dazzle us with your build...
Best of the Irish luck to you

There are several buildthreads of this one. So the foundation should be in place
Long buildtime doesn't affect me at all. Builds that last for a year.....no problem.
Same goes for repetive,just takes some time.
This build is far into the future,so I'm not worried yet!

Meh... It looks rather hacked up.

Are there any Kartonbau build threads? Obviously 1:25 forum won't have any.
