Time to try and get a Kettenkrad built between other campaigns. I know I shouldn't enter more than one at a time.

Hey, late add. I'll be doing a stylized Zvezda BMW R12 in 1/35. (I posted on here once but it disappeared! OR, I just didn't click "Ready to Reply") so I'm re-posting.
What cheek! Let them have it!

Bit of an update on my build.
Paints on, need to dirty it up a bit now.

I think I also need to set up a photo booth, never any consistency with my photos, the actual colour is nothing like the picture.

Max, is that also effecting the color of the front fender/light/wheel? They seem very dark, though I really like your dry brushing, very clean work.

No its all the same colour, that's just me playing around with some photo editing software.
New camera....idiot behind the lens.... not a good combination at the moment.

I found this old kit in my stash and this campaign is a perfect excuse to make it

I will probably replace most of the gear, weapons and the heads of the drivers with newer items.
More to follow soon.

Picture turning the right way

For some reason could not turn the picture in photobucket or modify the previous post.

A little more progress on the motocycle rider. His head definitelt had to go for a warriors head. I originally expected to replace his rifle and equipment, but it is actually not that bad, so I will probably keep it.
Before and after shots below.

Okay I'm in as a late entry with a Zvezda M72 Combination.
I haven't read through the whole thread so I don't know if anyone else is doing this but it has to be the fiddliest thing I've put together in a long time



This is going to be strictly out of the box for me though I will replace the figres with some great Helo figs by Anders Heinz who have been looking for a home for years
Box art - not my paint job

work to become not to acquire

Pat, good job so far. It seems very fiddly, but it also seems to have some great details. Especially compared to the 1970ties Tamiya bike.
I made a little more progress and will soon move to the painting stage. Just need to fix the hands of the figure so they grab the handle bar a little better.

this one looks like a british motorcycle??
Perhaps an NSU 250? Forks resemble some BSA/ Aerial / Velocette, but not I don't think with those backward levers that attach to the handlebar ends. What does the number plate prefix mean?
