Henschel 33 D1 ICM 1/35

[FullArmor]

My first ICM build.

[FullArmor]

first reaction from the ICM kit:

-really bad instructions (all in same angle and no closer images)👎

-bad locator tabs (makes assembly considerably more difficult due to poor instructions)👎

-really good part finishing and accuracy👍

-nice soft plastic👍

Thanks for the feedback🙂. I've never made a gray color model before. I'll have to try different things because of that. I thought I would make a green canvas roof. Because otherwise the truck will be too monotonous.

Yep she looking pretty good there and that exhaust manifold

[FullArmor]

Small interior.

Lots of part to clean up.

[FullArmor]

Nice details with this kit.👍🧐

canvas roof made from tracingpaper.

I will add decals to instruments later.

Even if I repeat myself, FA, your weathering style looks extremely well to my eye.

I didn't know what kind of seat it should be? Wood, fabric or leather? I tried to make worn fabric seat. I don't know if I succeeded. Well, at least there's something. However, most of this is covered by the roof.

Slow progress, but i have taking my time to test fitting parts before gluing.

I decided to leave the rear axle brake parts uninstalled(tiny pushrods) because they do not add value to this build. And also I would manage to break them up sooner or later.

[FullArmor]

Getting closer to finish.

Somehow the camouflage on the box picture worked, I´m astonished how big this truck is. Great progress with that clunky machine FA.

Thanks Rob🙂. I'll try to get this done pretty quickly. Only the bumper is unpainted.
