ICM Henschel 33D1 Kfz.72 Radio Truck Reveal.

Just did it…

6 Wheel or more SIG

FIN

Well with 2 hours to go I managed to get this onto the reveal thread! I must say this kit has been a right royal PITA.

I think the ICM build has fought me every single step of the way! A delay in arrival, to bad fit issues and ridiculously small and delicate parts. I had to scratch build a lot which really slowed me down. I think with a week to go and no paint on it I was not even sure I could finish in time!

I think overall it’s come out ok as can be expected. I’m sure some bits are not true to the original. I still have to fit the stowage racks and the bull bars at the front. And I need to tone in the roof once the oils have dried, but that is for another day.

To be honest will be glad to build something a bit more substantial like a tank!

Here are a few shots of the truck. I will probably put it on a Diorama base with Figs at some point. The doors are just tacked on until I decide how its going to look at the end :D

I hope you enjoyed this thread I am looking forward to building the next big project! :thumb2:

Yea I've read up there is a resin set from IBG will have to see if I can get one. I have made the roof removable so may add something at a later date.
