How to make tracks (links) tank Panzer IV

Tunny · 03-08-2008, 03:09 AM

Sorry for my stupid question, i guess there're some posts here talk about it but i cannot find them.

I really want to make tracks from the model kit (Panzer IV GPM) because i dont have any condition to try with a laser cut version. So someone please teach me how to do or give me the link to the old threads if they existed.
Thanks a lot.

TUNNY,
Note a stupid question at all. I second the request for a clear tutorial or some good build pics. I've got both GPM 1:16 Panzers (1 unbuilt and the other just the basic tub skinned tub built) and would LOVE to see an explanation.

I just went through a lot of threads looking. Can't find it.... There was/is a thread here somewhere. The person had photos and techniques for cutting out the individual pieces and then how to get them put together.

I think you're referring to my track build tutorial. Unfortunately the images got lost in the most recent cardmodels migration. I've redone the thread over at Paper Modelers with the images and some additional notes.
