discussion Italeri 1/35 Kublewagon Pkw.1 Type 82

[Alan 45]

I decided to give this a makeover it started life like this


This was my second vehicle I built once I started the hobby again and I think it looks ok but seeing how I've progressed over the years I thought I'd have another go

It was then used as a practice for camo View attachment 243387

and it now looks like this

I decided on a more dirty look for this one as I thought my last one detracted from what I wanted

Comments welcome

Cracking little build looks spoy on

[Alan 45]

Cheers guys and gal I appreciate it


It's a shame the figure is not defined enough, the stowage is an after thought due to the centre beam snapping and the carpet monster running off with half of it, I was going to put two figures in the back with the mg 42 on a support but it turned out OK in the end

Nice re-hab Alan, like the tarp rolls, are they resin or home made? before and after theme very appealing, suggested it once before but it got no traction.


Good job..............Jim

The tarps are from the tamiya Allied accessories set Jim , I saw that thread I thought it was a good idea but I suppose there's not many that repaint a model or buy a new one to improve on their first attempt


TBH I didn't give it much thought myself at the time , come to think of it now I've done it by accident I think it could be a good idea , I have quite a few I think could do with a make over lol

 

[Guest]

Really nice, looks like a 200% improvement! Although I'd have been happy with the first at my ability haha

What a transformation Alan I think it looks a lot better than the dull grey version

 

[Alan 45]

Cheers guys I appreciate it


I must admit it does look better

Well done ( really nice finish )

Cheers rob I think I'm about due to tackle a tank next

Nice one Al, like how you have developed this over time regarding colours, shows that a made model can be faffed with. I do like the additions of the equipment, gives it more purpose.

Cheers mate you'd never know it was previously painted would you


I'm thinking of putting this with my Sd.Kfz 10 towing a Pak 40

 

[eddiesolo]

No, looks like you have originally painted it that way. Good work, will look good with other vehicles, in fact it is a must.

I also have a couple of motorbikes so I could do a little convoy scene , come to think of it with the German stuff I have got in the stash I could do a column but the would be about 6 feet long so I doubt I would get that finished lol
