    Si-B’s Dragon 1/35 Sd.Kfz. 10 Ausf. A + Dragon 10.5 cm leFH18/40

    There are still the windscreen and a couple of little parts to add…but here’s how it looks unpainted.

    Si-B’s Dragon 1/35 Sd.Kfz. 10 Ausf. A + Dragon 10.5 cm leFH18/40

    The eagle eyed among you would of spotted the Sd-kfz 10 came with a 5cm Pak 38 but I had the 10.5cm leFh 18/40 in the stash and wanted to use that instead. It seems I forgot to take more pictures of the assembly :upside: It was a pretty simple build but Dragons instructions threw up a couple...

    Si-B’s Dragon 1/35 Sd.Kfz. 10 Ausf. A + Dragon 10.5 cm leFH18/40

    We then move on to tracks. Lovely engineering on these and being Dragons ‘magic’ type they are all snipped and bagged ready for assembly. Used Revell contacta glue for its viscosity as the pad placement holds the links together and you need to be careful or the tracks won’t articulate...

    Si-B’s Dragon 1/35 Sd.Kfz. 10 Ausf. A + Dragon 10.5 cm leFH18/40

    Gradually added more of the interior parts. There was some butchering careful adjusting needed for seat placement (see second picture) as the passengers side fouled on drive shaft parts….no big issue. At this point fenders and wheel arches went on. A bit fiddly requiring plenty of dry fit...

    Si-B’s Dragon 1/35 Sd.Kfz. 10 Ausf. A + Dragon 10.5 cm leFH18/40

    Started to add parts to the bath tub style hull. Steering parts/ dash and rear section added. More wheels made up and fitted onto the torsion bar style suspension. Seats and benches put together….

    Si-B’s Dragon 1/35 Sd.Kfz. 10 Ausf. A + Dragon 10.5 cm leFH18/40

    I admit I ditched the instructions at some point and built some of the sub assemblies up starting with engine/gearbox. Some parts where quite small!!

    Si-B’s Dragon 1/35 Sd.Kfz. 10 Ausf. A + Dragon 10.5 cm leFH18/40

    Assembly started with wheels. The kit gives you two options of front wheels and I liked the look of the layer type. The sprockets are also multiple part with some great engineering and detail.

    Si B’s Dragon 1/72 M142 High mobile artillery rocket system

    Appreciate the feedback gents :thumb2: Still a bit more paint and weathering to do yet…..the enamel based stuff takes a while to dry and I like to add layers to build it up rather then slap it all on in one go. I used some Tamiya smoke (X-19) on the window areas to tone them down. Never tried...
