2015-2016 House move and keeping busy......

Productivity away from the bench 2015-2016

So it turns out I was quite busy for short periods at the (temporary) workstation's I resided on during our prolonged house move!  No painting but under the circumstances quite productive!  I started building the Dragon Ferdinand premium kit, an ICM Renault AHN (Lastkraftwagen), Riich models Skoda RSO Radschlepper, the ancient Tamiya Sd.Kfz.7 primemover, Roden’s Opel Omnibus, Tamiya's Tiger I mid production, a Takom Type 2.5 VW crew cab and lastly a kit bashed soft skin build. This comprised an Italeri ambulance, a Ford V300 chassis together with Dnepro Model's resin fenders and Einsheitskabine (wooden cab)

 

Sd.Kfz.8 DB10 Gepanzerte 12t (Trumpeter) Chapter 1: Build history

Kit:                                          Trumpeter # 01584
Tracks:                                    Kit tracks
Photo Etch:                             Kit PE
Start date:                              February 2013

This is a kit that I started in 2013 and was about to start painting the body when we moved home in 2015. She made it to the new place intact but has sat on the shelf of shame ever since! I am still undecided what paintwork to apply as the box art is not too exciting and I have only seen other completed examples in a simple plain Dunkelgelb. Perhaps as only a few examples ever existed a bit of artistic license can be applied. I quite like the idea of a late war wavy hard edged Tri-Tonal. We'll see?
