A bit scary, I nearly bought that very model last week. Decided to hold fire for the time being. Want to get a bit more experience first.

I got the 1/35 Kubelwagen type 82 from Tamiya. I finished a Hanomag last week, not great, lots of mistakes, but so far so good with this one. Just not up to a standard like your stuff yet, but I will persevere! I'm really enjoying this modelling lark....cant believe I left it all these years! lol

Have to admit steve when i started a couple of years back one of the first kits i got was the Hanomag but due to moving a lot it has been slightly damaged so i may wreck it and put it in a dio, as for the kubelwagen it builds well with no filling needed you should have no problems with it..... besides mate it's about having fun and you'd be surprised at how quickly you learn new techniques hell i'm still learning and having fun doing it.

Nice one! I'm gonna get this kit at the weekend after seeing it on the go! Excellent.

Coming along nicely Scott.

That Bridge looks like it could be a pain in the rear to get glued up! The figures from Preiser, are they soft pvc or hard plastic?

Hi Ian they are hard plastic but the detail on them are very good.

Cracking model so far Scott, and loads of bits yet to do!

This is going to be one great project and I'm sure it will be superb when finished...

Nice one Scott, I have an avid aversion to those vinyl figures. A paint to clean up and almost as bad to paint!

Ron, are you not going to join in the fun this time?
