    1/35 Sd.Ah 56/57 Flak ammunition trailer (3D printed)

    Anyone wishing to model a 1/35 mobile German Flak 3.7cm 18/36/37/43 will find it difficult finding one of the Sd.Ah 56/57 ammunition trailers commonly towed by these vehicles. When it came to trailers the Germans made many...

    Bronco 1/35 Schwerer Wehrmachtschlepper (SWS) armoured version halftrack

    I tried out VMS's paper & shaper for the first time and after moulding the cab canvas on, decided to check out the VMS promo video. To my horror I found out it is advisable to use this BEFORE adding paint:anguished: I was planning on using magic sculp with the aid of talc as it can be moulded...

    Bronco 1/35 Schwerer Wehrmachtschlepper (SWS) armoured version halftrack

    Quick update. Seing as our UK weather is rather warm and pleasant for now...... I figured I could get some rattle can primer on outdoors. Started with Mr Surfacer Grey before giving my head a wobble and realising a red oxide colour (Tamiya Fine) would be much easier to spray over the grey...

    My Cars

    I was never into cars as a teenager. Just never appealed. Having something large enough to lug a drum kit around was always a priority. Humble beginnings with Commer's and Sherpa's. Both absolutely terrible vehicles, but they got the drums and me where they needed to be......eventually...

    Kitty Litter

    Taking a break from building my SWS I decided to work on finishing off a small vignette entitled 'Kitty Litter' I made a few years ago. I had left it unfinished whilst I awaited a few engine part items but looking at the plastic tub of parts that still require fitting to the scene, I don't see...

    Bronco 1/35 Schwerer Wehrmachtschlepper (SWS) armoured version halftrack

    Lining up the running gear and track construction I’m not a big fan of the repetitive process of cleaning and assembling hundreds of non-workable tiny individual track links. I find it the most tedious part of the hobby, and a possible sub-conscious reason why I build so many wheeled vehicles...

    Bronco 1/35 Schwerer Wehrmachtschlepper (SWS) armoured version halftrack

    Steps 21 through 34: The cargo platform Step 21 to 27 concentrates only on option 1: the enclosed armoured supply ammo version and supplies all the nebelwerfer rockets that this version would likely have carried. As I am not making this one let us skip right on to step 28. Steps 28 through...

    Bronco 1/35 Schwerer Wehrmachtschlepper (SWS) armoured version halftrack

    Resolving the seat/rifle rack/bulkhead issues. I have now made the cut-outs in the split bulkhead and removed the 'seats' but unfortunately as per the instructions the passenger side walls inside the bulkhead is already populated with all manner of electrical gubbins! (See red circle)...

    Bronco 1/35 Schwerer Wehrmachtschlepper (SWS) armoured version halftrack

    The torsion bar swing arms locate into holes in the chassis and there are pips on the rear of them to get them all to sit at the same height. If you wish to model the wheels and tracks undulated simply cut the pip off. Unfortunately, the road wheels are extremely loose on the swing arms and the...

    Bronco 1/35 Schwerer Wehrmachtschlepper (SWS) armoured version halftrack

    BUILD TIME With final design features decided it’s time to build:smiling4: Steps 1 through 6 concern the construction of the chassis and suspension. The frame is a one piece moulding and the components fitted neatly together, although you do need to ensure the multipart torsion bar tubes are...

    Bronco 1/35 Schwerer Wehrmachtschlepper (SWS) armoured version halftrack

    This is the 2016 ‘2in1’ Bronco kit #CB35214. It was the last release of a series of SWS variants, that were based on the original Great Wall Hobby mouldings stretching back to 2009. The detail is sharp, and the armoured cab thickness is nicely rendered to scale. Although there is a small...

    The fabulous decade old Riich Models Skoda RSO Radschlepper

    If you are into WW2 German soft skins, they don’t come more unusual than the RSO Radschlepper. This is Riich Models 2012 release kit# RV35005 in 1/35 If you haven’t heard of this kit, I can thoroughly recommend it. For a small sized manufacturer, it is a remarkable achievement. There is...

    wham-bam-thank-you-stalin

    This is an oldie but one I really enjoyed beating up. There are a few things I would do differently now and realise that all the shell containers and some rubber track pads would have burnt away

    A pair of late Panzer IV's

    Thanks. The tracks are the new T-Rex 3D printed ones. Thought I would see what all the fuss was about. They have certainly attracted mixed reviews. Many stating that the links are brittle and the pins nigh on impossible to work with etc. My links were fairly flexible but apparently it is...

    Mercedes L4500A (Zvezda) and Anhanger cargo box trailer (Azimut)

    Hi Dave This vehicle represents a 16th Pz. Div vehicle on a road north somewhere in northern France. Looking at pics of German columns retreating hastily to the Rhine they threw in pretty much anything that would fit in. The cargo trailer was built with a thin plastic card floor template that...

    Mercedes L4500A (Zvezda) and Anhanger cargo box trailer (Azimut)

    Started in Jan 21 this project is still a way of completion. I am currently working on the many accessories that both vehicles were carrying and trying to get to get to grips with the groundworks that they be displayed on. The Zvezda kit is a peach. Great value with only a few parts that put up...
