WIP: Hobbyboss Dora 2

So I am back with the railway cannon Dora. Since my last WIP about it I completed the carts and smaller bridge units. And started assembly on one of the 2 big bridge parts. Which consists of 2 big pieces glued together. which left a reasonable seam which I filled in with putty for the part of the seams that will be visible after everything is finished.

seeing this is my first ever kit with photo-etch parts it was quite hard to get the big pieces on first time arround.

WIP: Hobbyboss Dora

So this is going to be my first of probably many work in progress posts about this huge modelkit. so far I have built the tracks and built the 4 inner carriages and completed those, and partially build the 4 outer carriages with 1 of them completed as far as they are completed at this point in the instructions.

The very first parts to build next to the tracks ofcourse are the carriages that actually make contact with the tracks. This requires a total of 40 axles and 80 wheels.

Feel free to leave a comment about how you think I am doing or what you think of this kit.

Ok, well this blog is called 'The Gunpla of Strike_Lorri' but I am not just limited to gundams which I like to build. So expect me to put up other modelkits too that I come across and that I like or maybe even want to have. So share your opinion on them and let me know what you think of them.

So i was out looking arround in the local toy store where they also sell modelkits and i saw this monstrosity of a kit. As was clear i love big modelkits. And this German 80cm K(E) railway gun "dora" is huge, at completion, it will measure 1.11 metres long and 21 cm wide after completion. This kit is gonna go on my wishlist for after i get an airbrush and am able to do things with the airbrush because seeing pictures online its clear this thing needs to get painted(plastic comes in a sand colour).
