Italeri Sd.Kfz10/4 Flak 30 and Horch Kfz 15 staff car

The kits


 









Both kits are very basic by modern standards and the detail is not great. There are injector pin marks everywhere and the fold down tarp on the Horch is terrible! As this was a painting exercise no PE or aftermarket was used, although I did thin a few parts and replace the kit's windscreens in both for a better scale appearance

June 2016
 
Work has began at long last and both have been primered. This will be my first use with the airbrush in sometime so these are perfect guinea pigs. Both models have received a black pre-shade and then a light undercoat of chocolate brown. Both are to be finished in a scruffy late war appearance.
