Thank for all the positive notes on the old Tamyia Hanomag. Here are some basic construction pictures and some more details of the interior fort hose who asked.
#1 – Beginning modification on Dashboard and steering assembly. Used Styrene and stretch spruce to add the Steering column. Copper wire and slices of stretch spruce for the Radio headset with fine wire fore cables.
Initial paint job prior to final details and assembly
This is the early stage of the interior detailing. The Storage compartments were made from sheet styrene.
here you can see the spare MG 34 in storage.
beside the storage bin on the left hand side you can see the spare lens holders and the prefitting of the Dashboard
The rear door locking assembly was made from styrene and stretched sprue... I found a picture on the internet and used it for my “template”. Originally it actually worked, but was so delicate I glued it in place.
Interior work on the storage bin was a mixture of spare parts – including a panzerfaust and A&B Epoxy putty.. I tend to paint as I go then do a final paint and weathering job at the end of the project.
Finished interior
Final product prior to shipping to new owner...
I have a few more pictures at Hanomag for those of you who want to see a few more pictures.
Thanks also for all the encouragement to do another article on building or detailing, I am toying with a new article idea and hope to get it to out great Staff ASAP.
