I will post here continuation of the work on the Kettenwagen tractor.
It is the S/F project. My vision on the Vehrmacht tractor vehicle based on the Kubelwagen car.
Latest addition is the tool box- scratch built to fit on top of the fender.

Flak 38 from Dragon.
I reworked the welds around the base of the gun, as DML located the injection pins there- right in the middle of the weld.
The seat was scratch built, as the kit one is to narrow, and has a funny shape.

the PE details really lift it, but the base model is pretty impressive, too

Not much PE used here- most of it is scratch built Wink. ;)

Now i will use some PE- im working on the shields. More pics soon.
Hope you like. ;D
-
Definitely LIKE! :o
Did you scratch build the barrel, kit supplied or aftermarket?
Looking forward to watching your paint applications!
Cheers!
-
The barrel is from RB.
-
Thank you! Just finished looking around there. Very Nice!

2 out of 3 shields are almost ready. The rivets were sanded down and i will replace them with the Archer ones.
The spent shell basket soldered from wire, and will be wraped with the nylon mesh.

Wow! Also, I should have said, the extra detail rather than PE - of course it's scratch!
-
Great work Siara ! I like it a lot. Using a minimum aftermarkets makes always an interesting model.
-
Thanks guys! ;D
The Flak gun is now done, all the rivets were replaced by the Archer alternatives.

The whole gun is made of subasemblies for easier painting.

so detailed I would have guessed 1:35m until I saw the lighter... extra woew for that!
-
It is 1/35 Wink ;D
I started painting the tractor.
First the primer Chaos Black, then the mix of 3 kolors for factory red.

Siara, why hairspray?

Siara, why hairspray?
Best way to get the chipping done.
Soften the paint with the water, and it chips easy.

Filters, and brown wash:

Thank you so much guys. Im glad you like it.
Here it is completed, apart from few guns, and few items of stovage.
The color of the tracks will be changed according to the color of the groundwork.
