Tamiya 1:35th Steyr 1500/01 w/ verlinden upgrade (resin and pe)

Nice work so far Tiger!!!

Nice start, good to see one of these.

So what's the issue with the /10 that requires another one.

Love Tamiya kits. I really wanted to get this little guy, but settled on their Opel Blitz instead. I'll be watching with interest.

@bish apparently the /10 ammo is incorrect among a few other smaller issue but i will be plucking away at it :)

@tigerman I have seen the opal at my LSH looks like a fun kit! Glad to have ya aboard :)

Tiger, ye, I saw that post. But wasn't sure how another /10 would correct that. I thought someone suggested the Tamiya PaK 36.

You are indeed correct...lol good thing i didn't order it yet

in other news i have made some progress, as these pics show it is mostly test fitting with the outer body panels being glued together.

I hope to get color on the body tomorrow then i can move forward :)

LOL, its easily done.

hats coming together well, which colour scheme are you going for.

Thanks Bish :D

I am most likely going to do the 1943 Russian Gross Deutschland though plans may change down the road :)

Oh PS I may be joining your 1945 GB once i find a appropriate vehicle, i'll let you know Tuesday

@jersey66 i totally agree...lol they are vague at best!

Small update, added the pe grills to the hood and attached the front fenders and hood scoop/vents on top.

Another mock up just showing early progress. So much more to do.

This is coming on nicely Tiger.

This is a neat little vehicle that should provide a nice contrast to the Armor in our display case! It's looking like a fine build so far!

Thanks Bish and doog :) She has been very enjoyable to build so far :)

So i got a bit more done tonight (again this is only mocked up but it will speed the process now that im not hand painting everything. Tamiya Panzer grey nothing fancy...lol

Which Panzergrau did you use Dave?

@tigerman,

the exterior is done with Tamiya Panzer Grey (TS-4) interior and other bits i am brushing with polly S dark grey (rlm 74)

Looking good, panzer gray is on of my favorite colors to weather.

Thanks jersey66, I am looking forward to it.

made a little more progress, finished the second front seat, and laid a base coat down. 

The lighting makes the brown way more red than it is, i'll need to fix that...lol

once again everything is mocked up. 

I have a question if anyone can answer. The backs of the chairs, were they grey or wood colored? I went with grey but i can change it if needed.

Nice work Tiger. The backs of the chairs look like wooden slats to me. I would go for wood.

I went for wood...lol

Just some slightly updated pics now that the body and frame are glued and i am working on getting the seats finished 

I will have more tomorrow, when i get started on the tools and such and all the smaller detail stuff

Dude! Get rid of that green paper under your build! It totally skews the colors of your photos. Honestly, I can barely see enough color reference to make any kind of opinion on your color scheme.

yeah i use it to protect the desk...lol I'll toss down some white and take some new pics :D

Hope these are better for everyone :)

Got a bit more done, starting to do all the smaller details:

Much more to come 

Oh yeah, that's MUCH better!

Your model looks great now! The seat color is really well-chosen. It looks like supple leather!

thanks Karl! means a lot coming from ya :D

On a side not i was putting the switches on the windshield today wehn one just fired off like a bullet ... she is gone forever :( now im not sure how to make a replacement one...
