Tamiya 1:35 Wespe self-propelled gun


Recommended Posts

Latest off my workbench is this Tamiya Wespe.

It is the 1996 boxing which I added some improved parts from the 2018 re-release to the fighting compartment, in addition to may own scratch-built part. The driver's compartment was basically empty in the original kit. I used parts from Dragon Panzer II, including a gear box and transmission and floor, to form the basis on which I added my own scratch-built parts. The recent Nuts & Bolts volume on Wespe is my main reference.

Really nice! Really like the shells laid out on the tarp and all the other details you’ve added, and well done cobbling together an interior from other kits- I’m no expert but looks spot on!

Thank you. Much appreciated your compliment. I'm happy my attempt appears convincing enough:) I'm confident it wouldn't survive an expert's glance.
