The cargo part of the truck is joined on the chassis with the cab, the wheels are on and before the last assembly/weathering I fixed it to the base I made to prevent any damage during the last touches.... Soon it will be finished, at least I hope so..... Cheers !

Thank you ! Not sure yet, have a few ideas I will see what works the best

Some progress on the model. I made the ladder on the rear, the basic paint is on, highlighted the details with oil, more to come soon !

Finally got some time for modeling. The cargo part of the truck is done, canvas made from newspaper a few scrath details added beside the parts provided in the box. Not to hard to assembly, parts fit good easy to put together

Thank you ! The cab is now weathered and dusted, now it looks to me more like a barn find not and vehicle in use, I think I overdone the dust but it stays now at it is....But I like it actually

Thank you FrancisGL The basic paint on the cab is on, some fine touches are still needed and the weathering is still to come....

Thank you ! The chassis had it basic paint, there was two types of painting on these trucks. There was military olive and black, this time I go with the black to made a little contrast on this vehicle. Exhaust paint and weathering is still to come. The cab is completed, painted and weathered, assembly is the next step

The chassis is done, I only added a few pipes made of brass wire of my own ( except the exhaust pipe, it's given in the set as brass wire only job was to cut it on size, measures are given in the instructions ) the only " big " scratch are the cardan shafts, they were not in the test speciment of the kit but will be provided in kit. About the kit I can say so far so good

This truck was made in former Yugoslavia, it has it use in military and in civil purposes as well. It was made in TAM factory ( Tvornica Avtomobilov Maribor, now Slovenia ) and it was an Magirus-Deutz design produced by lycence. It has 4 cylinder air cooled diesel engine 85 Hp, it could carry 4.5 tons load on road and 2.5 tons off road, it has all wheel drive. There was many variants of this truck made ( variants such as 2x4 and with many different carrier variants, later on with V6 engine ) this model is build mostly for military with a winch mounted in front. This is testing of TriglavModels resin 3D printed kit, 1/35 scale, by this I would like to thank TriglavModels for provided model. First I started with chassis, after cleaning started the build. It need a lot of dry fittings, have to pay a lot of attention to be sure of parts gluing place, I suggest you go only one at the time, but the parts are surprisingly good fitting ( well designed ). Due to accuracy the parts are very thick and fragile, I learned on the hard way, managed to broke a few pieces but nothing too bad, all easy repair ( my fault, didn't pay attention on manufacturer warning about this... ) Here is the progress so far

One of my builds from a few years ago. Hasegawa 1/48 kit with Eduard PE, Eduard fabric remove before flight, Aires resin and scratchbuild upgrade in cockpit and wheel bays and struts, all marking are painted

Greeting fellow modelers. My name is Dejan and I come from Serbia, currently live in Hungary. Modellius is my a.k.a. from modelers club I founded in 2000 in my home town. I build models since I'm 6 years old so it's 39 years now without pause, I'm interested in mainly 1/48 scale aircraft and 1/35 vehicles/dioramas but I build anything I feel like at the moment.... As soon as I figure out how to post pictures I will post some of my work, in the meantime best wishes, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year for all of you !
