Kingsman Posted January 19, 2021 Posted January 19, 2021 Has anyone built any Wespe Models resin kits? They do some interesting subjects but in photos some look a little simplified.
Roman Schilhart Posted January 19, 2021 Posted January 19, 2021 I have the Wespe 1/72 M18 Hellcat, and it's a very detailled kit. Conveniently, the resin kit parts are already separated from the casting blocks. There's two photo-etch frets as well. I would consider the M18 as a high-quality resin model, but I'm not sure if all their offerings are up to that standard.
The Tomohawk Kid Posted January 20, 2021 Posted January 20, 2021 I have the 1/35 Wespe V2 set. I would say it is anything but simplified, in the box it exudes quality. Tommo.
Circloy Posted January 20, 2021 Posted January 20, 2021 had both the 1/48th Scammell breakdown truck & the 1/35th Monty's caravan both were cast in one of the hard resins & suffered warpage. Some of the more delecate parts of the Scammell suffered from 'bubbles' resulting in them being overly fragile & whilst removed from the casting blocks were stuck on a tape that was reluctant to release the smaller parts resulting in some breakage and replacement fabrication. May be worth considering the ready built option. Not of the same quality as Accurate Armour or Resicast but as you say some interesting subjects.
