Brief description of the model kit: |
Plastic kit is older but we would hardly find any better. Welds and other
small details are very nice. However, handrails are not good at all, so it is
better to cut them off and replace with thin wire. The more complex parts
of the model are tracks, because they have to be assembled from many small
parts. The kit also includes 2 figures. Iteleri gives us four options of color markings:

Brief description of construction: | I used acrylic paints Vallejo and Tamyia. Parts match together nicely, so we do not need a lot of putty. Painting model is relatively simple. I used masking tape and adhesive gum rolled to thin noodles, which I placed to the model. It is illustrated in the pictures. |

History
Jagdpanzer 38(t) Hetzer The Jagdpanzer 38(t) (Sd.Kfz. 138/2), later known as Hetzer ("baiter"), was a German light tank destroyer of the Second World War based on a modified Czechoslovakian Panzer 38(t) chassis. The project was inspired by the Romanian "Mareşal" tank destroyer.
Thanks to the vehicles powerful chassis various versions to be engaged as tank destroyers were designed based on this model, in the beginning simply by mounting protected machine guns. Later on they produced this model with an armoured machine gun mount. The Hetzer, which was pressed into service in the second half of 1944, proved to be an extremely efficient tank against even the most potent Allied military vehicles.

Ahoj, prosímtě, chci se zeptat. Jaké barvy nebo spíš, co konkrétně pouříváš na wash na modely? Děláš si něco po domácku, a nebo si kupuješ wash? Díky za rady :)

Ahoj, pro Warhammer figurky používám originální vodou ředitelné washe Citadel nebo jednoduše velmi silně naředím klasické krycí barvy. Na letadla nebo bojovku používám olejové barvy Umton. Ředím je přípravkem thinner for washes od Mig production. Více v tomto článku.
