Mercedes L3000 - Tamiya 1/35 plus ROYAL MODEL conversion kit


Recommended Posts

Simply Mercedes .......,
The 3000 Tamiya 1/35 with conversion ROYAL MODEL for which I have to personally thank the owner of the company Roberto Reale, very kind in helping me in a moment of difficulty.
The changes are essentially , I replaced in the down position the windows. The rest is painted with color Tamiya Panzer Gray duly highlighted and shaded by mixing colors with light / dark tone base. I then moved on gray surfaces Using Nato Camouflage Wash by A-MIG -1008 and worked a lot with watercolor pencils. Toreproduce mud almost dry I used various type of MIG dust. The kit from Royal Model in addition to the tarpaulin semi opened, I found many stowages all in resin on which I gived a coat of gray primer from Tamiya and then with brush, painted with Vallejo acrylics To scrape the bins I used the liquid 'Heavy Chipping' that highlighted the rusty parts. A model essentially simple, with his little problem gived by a rather old Tamiya kit that needed a little bit of putty to hide signs of extractors, the recesses of the plastic, out of square pieces, etc.
Cabin and chassis did not want to go together....... At the end this is the result
