Sd.Kfz.7 and 88

[djg261971]

Ok so on the bench now are these:



And are being loosely based on this picture:



The h/t is dunkelgelb, and the 88 is in Panzergrau in the winter of 1943 on the Eastern Front (my main area of interest in WW2)

I may even throw in a few surprises along the way

[djg261971]

Don't expect anything show stopping. Anyway I've started cutting plastic, and this is how far I've got with the h/t.

[djg261971]

Right so I've started on the gun, and the fire director trailer the Sd.Ah.52.

[bbd468]

1/72, count me in for this adventure mate !

[djg261971]

As promised the pics. The paint is a little glossy on the Sd.Kfz.7 as it's still wet.





Are there any plans available of what is involved with the Sd.Kfz.7/6?

[bbd468]

Hiya DJ, comin right along...nice start. Got some nice details on both. keeper comin!

Gary

[djg261971]

Thanx Gary. There wasn't much done for a few days as real life kept me away from the bench. But last night I managed to get some weathering on the underside of the h/t.



Thanx for looking.

Cheers Darren.

Dirt always look good on armors!

[Leon]

Darren very nice work,waiting for more updates.

[djg261971]

Ok sorry for the delay in updates. Here is how the h/t looked as of 10 minutes ago.



Now on to the treads.

Cool to see this being done in a smaller scale. Nice work so far.

[bbd468]

Looking real nice djg! This looks like a fun build and i would like to do more of tha wee kits myself. Keep it comin' man.

Gary

[djg261971]

Thanx Gary. It's getting there, once the treads are done I can concentrate on the upper area. And then see what suitable figures I have in the greeblies box.

[djg261971]

I managed to get the treads on. All I have to do now is weather them.

[bbd468]

Darren, I must say, from what i see in the pic, the wee tracks look pretty detailed. Lookin good mate!

Gary

[djg261971]

Thanx Gary. I'm enjoying it. It's looking like a half-track garage around here right now lol

[wbill76]

Making good progress on this one Darren, can't have too many HTs I always say!

[djg261971]

A little bit of progress tonight. And it's beginning to look like an Sd.Kfz.7.





I agree Bill I love h/t's does it show? lol

[djg261971]

Here is this afternoon's progress.



Now just going through my greeblies box to find some suitable figures and stowage.

[Leon]
