Phil1960 Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 Hi All. Here my RaupenSchlepperOst (RSO) from Italeri converted in ambulance. It was an hard job as Italeri kit was nice but terrible to work! The rear compartment was completely built from Evergreen plastic foils. Interior cab was scratched using some kit parts and Eduard pe. Tracks from Friul, side red cross are decals while top red cross was painted with airbrush and stencils. Anyway, I'm happy for results. I'd like to built another RSO using Dragon kit but its cost is absolutely too high (+/- 50 GBpounds)!😟 Hope you like. Ciao Filippo 27 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ernst Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 This is one of the more charming tracked vehicles the wehrmacht put out, I love the camo and those tracks really make a difference. The well placed camouflage net completes the overall look. Great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bullbasket Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 That's a really well painted and weathered model Filippo. Nice one. What did you use for the camnet? John. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil1960 Posted July 7, 2020 Author Share Posted July 7, 2020 Many thanks Rob and Ernst! Thank you John, I used a very old camo net from Verlinden Production fixed in place with PVA white glue and weathered with pastels. Ciao Filippo 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redcoat2966 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Cracking little RSO that Filipina’s, nice job.....sharp bit of scratch building too.....👌 And I agree on the ridiculous prices now for Dragon kits. I’m moving back to Tamiya and do plenty of upgrading and scratch Simon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ModelMonkey Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Love it! The RSO is one of my all time faves. I built the ancient Tomy boxing which I bought at a show - the Dragon one is stupidly expensive so I'll be looking for a cheaper one for my second one too! I hope my next one turns out half as well as yours! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Ward Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Wow Filippo, absolutely cracking job there, ive got an Italieri RSO in the stash, just might have to did it out. Totally agree with you regarding Dragon kit prices 😲😲😲😢 I've recently started a couple of ICM kits and to be honest the level of detail is fairly good and a damb sight cheaper to buy lol. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
