Lots of tiny details, but so far a fairly quick build (once the wheels were done).

There are some very tiny and fragile pieces, like grab irons, door bumpers and antenna parts. I decided to glue them in place and will clean them up after they dry.

The Neubau-Fahrzeug is almost ready to start painting. It came together pretty quickly - once the wheels were done.

Nice and clean built, George! You're really a fast builder without dropping quality! 👍

Can you compare this kit with the Amusing Hobby ones?

George Bacon
Holger, I only know what I read about comparing these two kits. perthmilitarymodelli../neubaufahrzeug.html

This kit seemed verydetailed, yet easy to build (especially if you like wheels) 😉

Holger Kranich
Oh, thx for the link, George! Very interesting!
And i only like wheels who are finished, painted, weathered and attached!😢

The paint scheme looks great. Did you mask or free hand the paint?

20 March 2013, 14:48

George Bacon
The grey was airbrushed and the brown was freehand.
