vytautas Posted January 23, 2021 Author Share Posted January 23, 2021 Hello everybody! Here is evidence of my laziness. Others do the two models in three weeks, and I only this: I changed a little the radio rack, made the connectors for the cables and the base for attaching the first aid kit. I made the casting numbers (cut letters and numbers from the sprue label) and carved a gap in the transmission cover. And glued tracks Vytautas 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vytautas Posted February 13, 2021 Author Share Posted February 13, 2021 Hi all! Again, I am demonstrating the tremendous speed of modeling. It’s hard to believe, but I managed to make a fire extinguisher during that time from a scratch: The German fire extinguishers inside were sometimes red.

ABER & Eduard PE will only get me so far i think Hi Rob, thank you for the kind words. Here some useful links for Wespe - some magazines, for downloading select "Download ZIP": 1. Wydawnictwo Militaria 233 Wespe 2. Wydawnictwo Militaria 58 Wespe 3. Nuts & Bolts 02 Sd Kfz 124 WESPE Warbook Reference photos and video: click1, click2, click3 And in the Tamiya kit is missing a radio station umformer, which must be on the shelve under the radio. Here radio station Fusprech f reference: click. On the photo of radio cover is the wiring diagram. I hope to see your new Wespe project soon! Vytautas PS. calameo.download is a great resource with a lot of literature but no search engine. But you can use google for that: open Google, in the search field type what you are looking for, type prefix "site:" and specify the site where to search. For example: wespe site:calameo.download Edited February 15, 2021 by vytautas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it withdrawn for travelling? Definitely not. Parts of the cannon are not glued yet for easier painting, I just didn't notice while photographing that the barrel is in an incorrect position. When painted, I will glue it correctly Vytautas Edited February 15, 2021 by vytautas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cometracer Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 You've put a lot of thought into your model and it will look the part when finished. It's an impressive list of modifications that really accentuate reality. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
