Sd.Kfz.251/6 DAK Dragon 1/35th scale

[HL-10]

Dragon's 35th scale Hanomag Sd.Kfz.251/6.

It is a typical Dragon kit, loads of unused parts, confusing instructions, but abundance of detail.

I added a fair bit of stowage from the spares box and painted it in DAK colours using Tamiya acrylics.

Weathered using the hairspray technique (to be honest I have tried this method a number of time and can never get the effect I desire).

Loads of pigments to give it a very dusty finish.

I agree. A very well painted and weathered half track. Some great detailing too and there's no way you're loosing it with that monstrous aerial. Excellent.👏👍

Very convincing desert camo, and looking just as if it's ben in the desert with all the dust.  I like the pair of shades next to the m/g.  

(I was going to say, that's quite a big erection) but I won't.

looks like it has just driven out of a sandstorm, great work.

Very nicely done. Great finish with the weathering and a nice dusty appearance.

Very nice weathered finish and think you have the hang of the hairspray technique.

I love all the dust and the stowage looks great. Hairspray can be a bit touch and go for me too - cheap, regular hairspray and Tamiya paints thinned with water seems to be the way to go.

Superb weathering and model 👏

Great original work. That’s one serious antenna.  Excellent. I especially like binoculars in the cabin.

Absolutely stunning, the weathering and dusty appearance is superb.

 

It's crying out for a diorama to be part of. 

 

Well done and congratulations on a fantastic project.

Hi HL-10,

A Hanomag very well treated on the subject of dust, sensation of reality...
The amount of equipment looks great, very well finished.
The antenna must make it difficult to store it...

Cheers

Francis.👍
