Relaxing built
Posted by constructor on Thursday, March 3, 2011 3:49 PM

To relax myself from the very serious builts on my workbench, I opened this Tamiya kit and build the Citroen Traction 11CV. It was an easy build. I painted it with Tamiya German Grey lightened a litle. Strictly OOB, it was a fun build.

Diversions like that keep me sane. Good work on the kit!

Yes, a vehicle with wheels wneh you are burned out on tracks. I smell a Kubelwagen in my future.

Nice little build. Was there a dimensional issue with the grill? It looks a tad off.

Very nice!  My relaxing "build" is the Tamiya Jagdpanter.  After the frustrating Panzer II Luchs, I'm enjoying this steel cat very much.

It looks museum quality to me.  Would certainly make a nice diorama grouping with some other vehicles.

For a change of pace build... this looks superb! I'd be willing to bet that this looks awesome in your display case!

Real nice looking build.  The change of pace builds are good to keep the juices flowing.

Looks like one of the sample pictures of the model Tamiya uses on the sides of their boxes. I love 1/48 Tamiya kits for this job :)

Thanks for the comment Beltfed. Actually, this is the 1/35 version but it's practically the same as the 48 model. Thanks for viewing.
