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

Kit:                 Trumpeter # 01584
Tracks:           Kit indy-link workable tracks
Photo Etch:    Kit photo etch
Start date:      February 2013

This is a kit that I started in 2013 and was about to start painting the exterior 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. Hetzer late war hard edged scheme maybe?

Restored vehicle pulled out of a Polish river. Notice the solid front drive wheel tyres it was fitted with.
