1945 late war 1/35th german truck

[joeimwalle]

this is a parts made truck by me from alot of diff 1/35th kits that ive used over the years, so took what i could find out of the parts box and built this 1945 looking beatup truck...
here is a list of some of the main parts
1.italeri RSO tractor wood back cargo section.
2.resin opel? truck cab unknown maker?
3. tamiya horch undercarrage with alot of modifications.
4. italeri truck tires
5. photo ecth door handles,wipers,back lic plate

so thats about all you need.
painted it to look weatherbeaten winter camo.
slapped on some mig powders to dirty it up and there you go..

Interesting choice of subject! Nice to see a very well done run-of-the-mill vehicle rather than a spectacular tank. I like it!

Best,
Greg

I like it as well. Love the grave markers in the back, what an idea. Also, the faded brushed on whitewash looks great.
best wishes, Nice work!

BRAVO!
the salvaging of parts from different kits fits the late war "last ditch" spirit
very good job with original ideas.

[Federico Perez]

Very good work and quite interesting, also like the grave markers detail and beat up jerry cans is quite another great detail, they look quite realistic in their bent/rusty look and the overall "used without love" look of this truck make you think about those last desperate days of the war, very nice indeed

What a fantastic effort - I really like the paint on the cab and rusty drums.

[chainsawrich]

Very Well done! Great kit!....

[SLIM]

great effort as i used to be a modeller myself and know how hard it is to weather kits to the desired effect...i would be proud of that

[AFF96]

Excellant work! Unusual subject matter & I must say I love it!
Congrats on a job well done!
