Hello friends,
I don't think I have a post about my Leopard 1 here yet, so I'll start now. You should already know my 5 MEXAS.

Already in 2018 I built this Marksman on Leopard 1. I bought some sprue sets from Takom.

"Story" gave me the idea to build the panther from the movie "A bridge too far"

I had received finished models from a dead modeler. Sometimes just scrap. But I want to use a lot of them. Oh no, do I really want to do this?

I couldn't take the under hull, it was so flat

I'll take the Gepard one, it's wrong on Tamiya

Now I use the parts from Tamiya. A friend gave me leftovers. Always without under hull and some parts were missing

I bathed the parts in destainer

Keep up the good work, Didi! :smiley:

So many Leopards, so many variations. You have your work ahead of you to build all of the versions. A well-stocked spare parts stash is also a requirement. :smiley:

Hello, there was also this problem:

On the other hand, this was easier:

I cast the boxes when I built the Chilean Leopard 1 20 years ago (Ex NL)

I like builds that bring an old model a new life
