discussion Blitz! Tamiya Cargo Truck 1/35

[Sjors]

Hi All!
Here is the build report of my current project.
Because its the first since a couple of years, it will be a OOB build.

Its the Opel Blitz kit from tamiya and the build itself was very straight foreward.
The only small modification I did was to damage the fenders a little bit:


Even got the interiour done and painted!

Because the weather outside was nice, I attacked the truck it with a spraycan for the base coat:


The next evening I added some pinwashes to the cab and added highlights with oilpaints:



Next step is to paint all equipment, tires and of course the overall weathering.
Maybe even to find something to put into the flatbed...

Im not going for something histrorically correct, just using this project to get all the techniques back in my fingers

Love the office work.

Nicely done.

 

[Sjors]

Thanks Jim, Mini and Scottie!

Painting and light weathering is done!



Added some leaves, but the effect is diminished because the colour of the leaves and the plating are so similair…


Flat bed is still empty, so the next step is to change that!
