Jagdpanzer iv/70 – speed build

Ok here is a very long artical about a very quick build.

I recorded how long I worked on these models.. not in one continuous activity but in snippets of work.

SO here goes

11:50 unpack blisters


The 5 tanks in blisters.. these are OOP now.

Cleaning up the parts of flash
11:37 clean tracks

11:45
After washing then drying them in the sun on a towel.

12:15
Priming the tracks.
Note I did not prime the hulls because the resin is dark grey and this saves time.

12:30 – 1:00
Base coating in dukelgelb with airbrush

Base coating the hulls


1:25 – 1:45
Gluing on the tracks to the hulls


1:25 – 1:30
Using a template mask to paint the green camouflage but only on the hull and not on the road wheels.

Green on

Brown on
1:30 finish

2:30 – 3:10 – painting tracks

Hatches on
7:00 – 8:30 — painting tracks and fluffing around with fix ups and barrel painting and magnets
9:00 am next morning — 9:45 detailing

Gluing on magnets for holding the barrels


Fitting barrels and fixing he weak set. The magnets were too small for he weight of the barrels

6:45pm — 7:00 pm green stuff barrels.

Still some stuff to go… but otherwise looks like it has taken 5hrs50 mins
That’s an average of 1 hour and ten minutes each.
