Any Hobby modelers on here? (I have a few questions)
Hey guys, I am about to start getting into modeling with a plastic tank model. I was wondering if any of you had any suggestions and could help me pick out of this list on which would be the easiest to start on. These will have to be painted so tips with that would be appreciated as well.
I am picking from these models, price is not an issue on these. Keep in mind I don't have a tiger on here or panther because I would like to have a little experience before I tackle some of my top favorite tanks.

1 ReplyRaptor, Start with the last one, the Hetzer. it's simple and would be easy to assemble. the most important thing to remember is to be patient, take your time. one slip-up with, like with the glue, and it will show forever. like Ttasmmv said, clean all the parts thoroughly and make sure the mating edges are clean and smooth. dry-fit the parts to make sure the mating edges mate properly before you glue them. for paint I often use an airbrush as even the best brushes can leave brush marks, but that is personal preference. remember preparation is everything.
