Greetings. I built the 1/72 scale version of this vehicle and will be curious to see how the oversized version of it comes together. It is a very interesting subject and quite challenging. From looking at your pictures, the only differences I see are the decals and the separate turret hatches. Good luck.

Cheers,

Interesting build. I have my Luchs waiting for new tyres (I bought the kit in a model fair and later I realized that the rubber parts were "missing" )
Thanks for posting

wow - that was a fast build! It must have went together with no significant fit issues or the like? Are those vinyl tires? will they take paint?

Looking forward to your paint job as this is a very interesting vehicle. Nice job!

Nice clean build.

You may have fallen into the same trap that I did. I sanded down the seam between the top and bottom hull pieces when in fact there appears to be a slight overhang from the top piece.
