Hobby Boss U.S. M3A1 ''White Scout Car'' 1/35 early.

[xXModellerXx93]

Hi Everyone here is just a little review of my current build. Now I'm building the ''White Scout Car'' from Hobby Boss in 1/35 scale. It's a very small kit with nice details and i think i will also make a Diorama for it.
So here are just some pictures of the kit.









This is the Picture I've taken to build the diorama. Only some figures are missing.



The next part will deal with the build. See you soon.

Looking forward to more updates, really like the detail of the dashboard clocks, should be a real stunner of a diorama.

I build this kit a year ago, and it's nice and easy to do. Looking forward to see the result!

[Filo387]

I have this kit in my stash. I am a bin man (well recycling box man) and I found this kit complete just the outer box slightly damp. So I will be watching this build closely

[HWGuderian23]

Seems to be a nice kit!
Looking forward to see your progress mate...

[Coen]

Wicked!!!! this will be a sweet build.
Good luck with her buddy!!!

Hello , here is just a small update on my build. It's a nice kit. Everything comes perfectly together.
But there was also some filler needed.

[Paul]

Nice work

[Filo387]

Is the red part your add in for the fan belt

[xXModellerXx93]

Yes it is. It was missing so i added it.

[gosselin2112]

Nice work so far. This is another model of many to add to the stash.

[xXModellerXx93]

Hi guys sorry for not being online for so long. I've been very busy.
But i worked also on the Scout car. It looks good so far...





These are figures i will use for the dio. It was a little bit difficult to find the right ones.
They are quite nice.

[xXModellerXx93]

A new update on my Scout Car.
Today i was working on the Diorama and also on the Scout Car.
For the dio i used an old kit from Miniart and glued on a plate of styrofoam and Wood. I'm not that diorama guy so maybe someone could give me some helpful tips.




The Car is already painted. The first step was to prime the modell with black paint. Then i used Tamiya XF62 and some Yellow from Revell to create some shadows and Highlights. The next step will be to paint the details.



The Figures are not the best but still fine.
I made the belts for the guns with a piece of rubber tape

[Paul]

Great work buddy

[ww2hispanomodels]

Cool work! I'm shure that the dio will look exellent

[Coen]

This looks to be a really cool dio buddy. I think I see what you're planning and it will be a striking piece.

If you are looking for some tips on the base, I'd make sure that the styrofoam is glued with white glue or wood glue to a piece of wood before you add anything else to it.
If you add ground cover to that without attaching it to something solid it will roll up and warp.
A solid base is one of the most important parts of a diorama.

New Update on my Scout Car. It's almost done. The Diorama will take some time but i think it will be great.
The pavement is self made. I cutted Little squares from an old cardboard and glue it on the base.

[T3hGuppy]

Great job dude.

The weathering is spot on.

[Coen]

Oh WOW!!!! I love the look of that Scout Car... freaking awesome looking subject.
You've done a great job weathering her up to. She's going to look awesome on that dio.
Looking forward to it.

[longlance67]

wow it looks the bizz all weathered up

smashing work mate



Shane

[JayCub]

The scout car is looking superb, really nice detailing and weathering, and it's always great to see the updates that you have done.

Update:

Hey Everyone. Yesterday I finished the Diorama and I'm glad it's done. It was a Little bit of work but i enjoyed it.
Thank you all for the Support and Merry Christmas. Thank You.

So here it is.

[FokkerDXXI]

I bought the same figures last month. I want to build a dio where the americans run from a tiger 1 tank ( operation market garden, 1944 holland ). I Will post that sooner of later on this forum because im too busy with other stuff!

Jos

[JayCub]

Well worth the wait to see this finished, very nicely done indeed, the diorama is just stunning and im really happy to have followed along for the build as its top notch.

Tom

[Coen]

That is one hell of a piece of work... It's very rarely that modellers use that much action in a diorama. It's difficult to convey. Especially an emotionally charged issue like a dead or wounded soldier.
Most see it as taboo. Which is silly in my opinion.
A great story, well told.

[Andyman23]

WOW! Unbelievable

[xXModellerXx93]

Thank you very much.

[longlance67]

very nice peice mate,

very dramatic and well executed


Bravo
