Retired Bob Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 Interesting to watch this build as I have built a couple of the old Tamiya Sd.Kfz.232 kits with the "roof rack" antennae, I have always been tempted to get one of these newer AFV club kits, perhaps at the right price. BTW how do you manage to find anything in your modelling space? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Marshall Posted August 4, 2019 Author Share Posted August 4, 2019 Got the top on today and the fit has been to coin a phrase 'horrible'. Obvious that this is a variant off an original kit Peter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Marshall Posted August 10, 2019 Author Share Posted August 10, 2019 Today - chipping, first light chips then dark chips Peter 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaastav Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Nice. I have wanted to get one of these for a long time. Perhaps when the time (and price) is right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick4350 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 (edited) It is a pity that AFV Club have omitted the Notek rear Light installation in this kit although it is there on part CC14. The lamp should be attached to part D19 in step 36 of the instructions but funnily enough they have placed the un-numbered part in steps 41, 42 and 43. The dreaded cut and paste errors occur here as well. Edited January 23, 2020 by Mick4350 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
