Vytautas the more the merrier... need something to build while everything else goes to the paint shop (and need a free weekend to start painting them) ... some Group builds planned for later in the year so this is likely the only one i actually get to choose Edited January 2, 2022 by robw_uk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edjbartos Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 That's a nice choice Rob, it will be interesting to see this develop, good start so far... Ed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robw_uk Posted January 11, 2022 Author Share Posted January 11, 2022 small vehicle with a lot of detail... chassis done, engine done, both need painting before I can start on the body work (apart from the engine bulkhead)... 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edjbartos Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 That looks smashing so far, nice detail on the engine, looking good... Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watto64 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Nice looking kit (unusual) - would be good in a DAK finish, suitably dusty and weather beaten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamden Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 I'll just squeeze in at the back of the crowd and watch another of your excellent projects progress though the stages. Great start looking forward to the next update now Stay safe Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robw_uk Posted January 15, 2022 Author Share Posted January 15, 2022 dont think much of the engine will be visible once the bonnet is on but its been primed, along with the chassis and engine sides... must admit that the UMP primer thinned 50:50 with UMP cleaner works really well.... 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robw_uk Posted January 22, 2022 Author Share Posted January 22, 2022 it's sooooo small.... build finished. Will be painted in the DAK scheme (once the paint arrives)... interior is all just placed for ease of painting/weathering 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robw_uk Posted February 1, 2022 Author Share Posted February 1, 2022 all primed. Dunkelgrau next then (once it clears customs) DAK 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robw_uk Posted May 8, 2022 Author Share Posted May 8, 2022 this has moved on... wheels on, 2/3 guns added (painted the wrong one so need to do that), windscreen on... need to do the lights and maybe a little bit of subtle dust but nothing OTT... and then need to do just a little more on the canvas roof.... 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redcoat2966 Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 That's a nice little thing that Rob, quick build too. I've yet to build an ICM kit. Looks like there were little to no issues you experienced. Might keep my eye open for an ICM and give them a try. Seem's they are reasonably price too, in light of the ridiculous prices now being asked on Ebay and the like for other brands - Dragon, Tamiya and Takom. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
