Hello everyone, I am making steady progress on the vehicles for my current dio. Here i have almost finished the DML kettenkrad. It is thru the drybrush stage and awaiting being dusted with pigments and powders. The kettenkrad's tracks look like a bear when you look at all the tiny pieces but actually went together quite nicely. So far I am pleased with how this has come out. Ans yes I know there is a thread there, I am debating whether I should add more boxes. Whats does everyone else think? I would like to hear others comments. Any and all, let me have it. Cheers Kevin

My take would be more boxes. I like lots of stuff.

One thing I noticed was the figures goggle strap, is it up under his hat?
The white emblem on the left side is a bit clean. Just a nit pick.

The camo blending is great.

hi Kevin,
the painting of ketten and figure is very good. I agree Scott's eagle eye critics as always..adding another row of 3 boxes and tieing them withthe rope will make it better and google strap can be added easily.
congrats

While I'm the last guy in the world to advocate the 'mudded to death look'...
But wasnt' the purpose of this vehicle to go places that bigger supply/towing vehicles could not? You've got the loaded to the gills thing down.
I'd suggest a little more mud, just to reinforce the idea that it is a higher mobility vehicle.
but that's just me.

Well u ve sure made anice clean build and good paint job both on Ketten and figure . I agree with pre posters and some more mud on tracks will add to the vehicles charachter


Keep on

Great job again, I know you have already given me a sneak preview, I think you are right on the money, superior workmanship. As for more mud, depends on your setting. More boxes? Mayhap, maybe a couple of the smaller ones, you should have some on one of the sheets. Or the medical supplies?

Thanks for the helpful comments guys. I agree I will make a goggle strap for the driver and will also add a few more boxes. Since this is a dio of a convoy of vehicles heading for kursk in the summer of 43 i wont add much mud but a heavy dose of dust. I agree these vehicles were for the jobs other vehicles couldnt do but since its heading to the front its just being used for regular transport duties. I have also noticed I lost a bracket holding the axe on, i have remedied this. Will post more after the final weathering. Any other things any one noticed that I could change or improve? Just post and let me know. Cheers Kevin

As always your work is impecable. I hope one day to be as good as or better than you..haha. I really like the figure. The facial featues are awesome. Good Job..
Loves Ya,
Mary
