1-87 Scale Citroen 15 "Six" Medical Sedan

[Lee Drennen]

Rick. Thanks for posting those nice trucks I didn’t know they captured that ‘37 IH you did a good job on it. What color will this car be?

[Mini Me]

Hi Lee, well when this car was captured in France it was pretty early in the war.....schwarsegrau or Panzer Grey would have been the standard at that time......so grey it is. Soon as this dries completely I can get a clear coat on it and do some decaling. Rick H.

Going to look the part Rick.

Thanks JR.

Here is a better shot of the paint job.......will be doing some decaling and washes later Rick H.

[Mini Me]

Headlights in, decals on and a couple of washes. I'll attack this with some dry pigments, stick the glass in and call it done..........not my finest hour. Rick H.

[Lee Drennen]

Rick. I really like it. You did a fantastic job on this the washes made a big difference The wipers really set it of as well as the upgrades it’s a shame this has to end so soon. Possibly another Ambulance build?????

[Mini Me]

Thanks Lee, Funny you should mention more ambulances............just won a couple of evilbay auctions and when these vehicles arrive I will be building a couple more ambulances and possibly another Medical Staff car......just for fun of course, until the G/B starts.

Thanks Rick can’t wait. I won a 1/72 Airfix RAF Emergency set off of Sleezbay last week. I’ll post it tomorrow

Here is what I ended up with......it will feature on my upcoming diorama build of a field hospital that I have been playing with and waiting for figures that have been on back order since I was a "lad"! Look for the remaining photos in completed soft skins. Thanks, Rick H.

Some nice out lining around those doors Rick , what were you not happy about , the texture of the body ? You'd have to spend hrs sanding that surface ( die cast ? ) back. Taking the scale into account at 1-87 think your being too hard on your self.

[Tarps]

Rick you have done a splendid job enhancing the medical sedan, I like the orange peel affect of the paint job it gives the sedan that worn look about it.
I would be more than happy with what you have achieved.:thumb2:

Another great addition to the dio Rick. Looking forward to seeing them together,

Hi Rick
That looks the part. As others have said you certainly have a way of adapting/enhancing these 1/87 models.

Thanks Gents, You are too kind. The paint job was a let down .........to fix it would have meant to strip it down and start over. Easier to bin it and buy a new one (been out of production for some time) but it passes muster employing the "2 foot rule".
