In this update Ill show you the painted interior and a dryfit of the whole picture!



The Dozer blade! its HUGE!


I filled the big seam line on top of the running gear:
Before:

After:


and a dryfit:



Right now I have finished the interior, fully weathered it and completed the build of the D9R itself.
this means in my next update you'll see the result and I can move on to the painting and weathering of this beast!

for the update on my website see here: Interior Painting & Dryfit 1/35 D9R Bulldozer build log part #03

Good news! The build / assembly of the model is done and the interior is weathered and finished!
First imma show you some pictures of the completed build:



Next up are some pictures of the finished interior:





Now I would like to have your opinion on the interior, do you guys like it or should I add something?
When I add the roof, there no way back and I can move on to the exterior painting

cupholders?....

(I mean the interior looks WELL WORN...but there is no floatsum...clipboard, pens, empty bottle...etc)

Youre right!

Thanks to Frenchy I got the idea to build this cage:

and here is the result:



Please notice that the cage is dryfitted and the two metal rods are just to put the cage in place for dryfit.
When everything is painted and weathered I will fix the cage to the D9R the same way as seen in the pictures from the above

So, that was the cage, on to the first step of painting this Dozer. After seeing pictures of some heavy weathered D9R’s I realized I will need some heavy chipping. This lead me to the chipping fluid / chipping medium solution based on the hairspray method. I used Vallejo’s Chipping Medium product.

I will not post all the pictures and guide on how I worked in this post, instead see my website. (sorry for you guys for having to click to another website but Im not gonna copy the exact same content from my website to here, I hope you'll understand)

The way this goes is that you first apply the bare steel color:

















That were all the big parts with the first layer chipped. In the next update I will cover the second and last layer, the sand color!

If you have any questions, feel free to ask and I’ll be happy to help you out!
