I got this kit for my Birthday back in July and I am now just getting to it because my wife said where's that model you wanted so BAD and she bought. So I have a little pussed from that end now I just need to get info about the Faun.
This will be my 1st big build and since it'll take me forever why not super-detail the tank transport. I got every PE set I could find for the STL-56 Faun kit and I was wondering where I can get the owners or maintence manual to use as a guide.
One of the features of a 1/35 scale faun might be getting me out of this long era model funk I am in.That model just said bang now that is a nice kit for a cheap buck compared so some of the modern transports out there. I hope mine comes out half as good as his then I'll be Happy. Any drawing or that type of stuff would be greatly appreciated.
What does the PE sets don't have and what would I scrap build that little detail that brings it to the next level. OR AKA " rivet counters ".
I also need to find out how to make those end peices for the hoses and and values and stuff thats connected to or it's to small to even bother.
Was this kit used in the Bosnia or Kosvo wars, I tried to figure it but not getting what I need to find out if it was only used for German brokdown or just needed to transported something. Or did all of Nato use what was the closest to be used because doesn't Nato just one big army or just little army's controled by a Nato president who decides to use them at that time or not.
Happy Modeling

common loads for a faun would be
Leopard 2A4, 2A5 and 2A6, as well as Leopard 1A4 and 1A5.
Uncommon: Pzh2000 and Marder 1A3
Rare: armoured vehicles from other countries, which could include Abrams tanks, Challengers, Warriors and Bradleys, as well as SPH90 and M109 variants.
Hope this helps,
Richard
