Playing in the Sandbox Group Build Sept 1, 2024 - Jn 1, 2025

1/35 Sd.Kfz.7/1 2cm Flakvierling 38 auf Selbstfahrlafette - Dragon


Recommended Posts

I finished this Flakvierling awhile ago and never published the completed project. Dragon delivered as usual a stunning kit and albeit with confusing instructions and joy to build. I have noticed a couple of items that in hindsight should have been fixed…….
 

The WIP is here

Completed pictures with figures that are very badly painted but do give the model a context of size…..

Tracks look detailed. Workable tracks?

They are the excellent Dragon Magic Tracks, individual track links in plastic. They can be made to be workable depends on the track being built….. one of the reasons I rate Dragon…….

Wowsers Phil , that must have been a heap of work !

I had a Trumpy version that I sold on after looking at the track build ...each link was 4 parts ....nope 🥲

This 7 and the FAMO both make great subjects, especially in the Panzer Grey, &  that 'veirling looks great too about 100 years on from Tamiyas old clunker from the 70's . The open ammo boxes is a nice touch . Thanks for sharing .

24th PzDiv ?

Much appreciated PW, it was a lot of work but really enjoyable. The only AM were the barrels in hindsight not really worth the cost, they were half the kit price, albeit I got the kit on evilbay….I have the FAMO & Sd.Ah.116 from Tamiya in the stash circa 1999. Comparing the 7 to the Famo, chalk and cheese. Wish someone would kit a really good Famo with all the bells and whistles……I thought the ready ammo would be a nice touch as I’m thinking about pairing this with the Border Fw190 in the same scale in a Jabo protection role……..no idea on the division I’ll check…….

Very nice work Phil! I am halfway through the Tamiya version with photo-etch. I know it's an old kit, but I am enjoying the build. The Tamiya Famo & Sd.Ah.116 are on my Christmas list, so fingers crossed!

 

Cheers

Kev
