I`m trying to find: walk around if possible, but more realisticly any picture of the real thing, can`t find nothing of interest...

Walkaround is difficult. As far as I know there's no surviving example of the armoured version. Sinsheim Museum does have an unarmoured 10/5 on diplay with a good selection of photos HERE

Prime Portal has a walkaround of the bog standard Sd.Kfz.10

THIS BUILD of the DML kit on Armorworkshop has a good selection of reference photos throughout the build (you may have to register and login to view the buildlog).

Other than that wartime photos are very scarce. When building mine I collected over 500 photos of the various Sd.Kfz.10s from all over the net and maybe a dozen were of the armoured 2cm version (and that covered both the 10/4 and 10/5) but the back end is the same for the unarmoured version as it is for the armoured.

Hey Phil

Those Armored cabs were field modifications and not all units had them. There may be only a scattered few photos due to the scattered modifications of the units. I called a retired tank buddy of mine in Germany and that is what he relayed to me, (86 years old and served in the Wehrmacht, and he still has all his facilities). Hope that helps

Hi Philippe,
I have over 200 photos of the SdKfz 10 and variants such as the 10/4 and 10/5. All of the photos I have are all from the internet that I have collected. These photos are over 30mb in total so are too big to send via e-mail.

If you'd like to have the photos, U'm happy to share them with you and I can upload them to an online storage site and then send you a link that you can download them.

If you are interested, please send me an e-mail at the e-mail address below. Be sure to replace "at" with @ and "dot" with a period.

Here's my e-mail address: csosinus "at" verizon "dot" net

All of the pics I have are period photos from WW2 and are as I found them on the internet. They are not in any order and there's over 200 photos. Someday I plan on getting the pics organized, but that takes a lot of work.

Let me know if interested and I'll be happy to share them with you.

I found an official US Army reference photo of one of these with the armored cab (just like the old Italeri model) in the Patton Museum Library and scanned it. When I get home tonight I will try to dig it out.
