Roman Schilhart Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 (edited) Dear fellow Britmodellers, I just finished my 1/72 IBG Scammel recovery truck. This is an amazing multi-media model kit with fine detail, but requires some patience and experience. I am not too happy with the tow rope, which lacks tension. The photo-etch hook does not really add weight to the assembly. I painted with Gunze/Mr Hobby acrylics, representing a vehicle of 22.Armoured Brigade, 7. Armored Division, in France 1944. All photographs by Wolfgang Rabel. Thank you for your interest in this topic. Best greetings from Vienna Roman Edited August 13, 2020 by Roman Schilhart 39 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanC Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 A little jewel, Roman! Very well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
APA Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 If it it wasn't for that £1 coin I'd swear that was 1/35. Lovely job. I like it a lot 👍 A 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry1954 Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 A superb little model, very well finished. I love these small scale AFV's. An idea for you @Courageous? Terry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevehnz Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Ooooh, I like that. Brilliant Roman, you've sold me on one of these for sure. Steve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faraway Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 A splendid example, well done. I have the Thunder Models example of this in 1/35, but am unable to start the build as I’m missing a sprue. Hopefully the shop where I bought it, are getting me the missing sprue soon. Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quiet Mike Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 That's amazing! I too am struggling to believe it's really just 1/72, great work, and so nicely photographed too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedro1 Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Great looking build Roman, it neatly underlines the purposeful look of the Scammel. Hard to believe it is only 1:72! Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
echen Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 I've got one of these in my stash. Hope I can get it at least half as good as this one........................ As Pedro says, it looks a bigger scale than 1/72 with the detail and paintwork you have achieved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natter Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 One of my favourite vehices. Were it not for the Euro coin that could easily pass for 1/35 scale it is so nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luis Alfonso Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Hi again Roman: Congratulations for the nice build you have done with this little beauty!!! Have watched the build carefully and really liked the way you gave done the job here, really a very high dexterity exercise. Liked a huge lot the way this little jewel looks in every sense, and impressed so much to me that have dug into the stash to retrieve some little kits from Airfix that by one or another reason I have preserved, and think it would be time to try my hand with them. Seem this build could be the most direct fruit of your job here. Thank you very much for sharing, Cheers, Luis Alfonso Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimonT Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Wow, 100x better than I can do in 1/35. Looks excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernst Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 I really like those wavy camouflage patterns, I'm merely scratching the surface with British camouflage patterns and colours but ist's a very interesting subject to study. Awesome job, Cheers, Ernst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiton Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 (edited) Model looks great. I like this vechicle very much. I build Scamell tank transporter-Airfix kit, at this moment. Well I'm sure that IBG kit is two times better ,-) Edited August 21, 2020 by spiton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyWessex Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Really nice job... much better than my effort, but I do agree it needs patience, it's quite a fiddly complicated kit for it's size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
