HOLY SMOKES! I’ve just cut a hole in my HETZER! Pt2. Takom 1/35 Early Hetzer Build & Paint Tutorial

In todays episode I progress from the interior and engine bay I painted and weathered in the previous video and move on with construction with the view to getting the model ready for paint. So far so good and this NEW Takom Hetzer (early version) in 1/35th scale is really ticking a lot of boxes. If you havent seen Part 1 I’d urge you to check it out - Most of the modifications I suggest through the video have been researched by Tracey Hancock and Sam Dwyer - and my thanks go to these guys.
