IDF Magach 7C

Aaron, the amount of detail youre putting into this is amazing. Im learning a ton just by watching you work. Incredible my friend.
 
Guys, thank you very much for the comments, this is almost in the final stage of assembly, and soon will go to the painting process where pigments are my nightmare, I hope to leave a decent finish for the first time I'll try to make a color modulation I hope to do a decent job. I commented, in the near future and if God lends me life, I'll start a new WIP with this model that has just arrived at my office.

Soon this new project developments, greetings.
 
Hello guys, after the end of the year and the workload presented to me because I'm already back with Magach since I started the paint job but the weather has not left me, the first high humidity and dust now not leave me , well I started with the completion of the turret, placing nuts, hardware and work with MAG's, the latter if you saw the first phase,photos:

I had to move the connection and put the output of the M60, as the resin was wrong, is not it odd?

I remembered an old technique and place the mold numbers on the turret:

And I repeat again with the serial number plate of the vehicle ::

Your work is amazing. I have one question and I think I already know the answer but how do you make the handles? The ones with the blue and red part on the rear deck.

In answer to how to make handles, we need the following:

Knife this type:

Pliers:

Triangular inch needle files, place you a coiled wire to remove the handles of the same size:

2012-08-09191146.jpg

Telephone wire:
2012-08-09191202.jpg

Cut a piece and remove you the plastic:

With the clip we took it and proceed to roll it to the rededor of one of the arms:

2012-08-09191353.jpg

We cut:

2012-08-09191521.jpg

cut the wire a little so that we can pass the plastic coating:

2012-08-09191801.jpg

2012-08-09191831.jpg

Insert the plastic coating on one end:

2012-08-09191907.jpg

then the other, sometimes will cost us a little work, handle ready to paste into the model:

2012-08-09192153.jpg

We are going to the next:

Same process a piece of wire and the Triangular inch needle file:

Bending in the form of "V":

2012-08-09192528.jpg

We rolled to the triangular inch needle file:

2012-08-09192604.jpg

2012-08-09192628.jpg

is so:

2012-08-09192707.jpg

We cut:

2012-08-09192721.jpg

2012-08-09192738.jpg

We align to cut after:

2012-08-09192802.jpg

The triangle:

2012-08-09192810.jpg

We cut to move the plastic coating:

2012-08-09192828.jpg

2012-08-09192842.jpg

We had the plastic coating:

2012-08-09192932.jpg

Ready our second handle:

Two handles for positioning on our model:

I hope to serve you, greetings.
 
Aaron, thank you very much for the how-to. You did them just like I was think. Now I understand the method better and will give it a try on my builds. Thanks again.
