Like a number of us here, I'm thrilled to see Zio Prudenziati's models available again. I decided to try and combine my current phase of small scale African Campaign building with one of ZP's kits, the Afrika Korps kubelwagon. This was somewhat ambitious of me as the original 1/35 kit has some small parts that become hard to see at 1/72. I should have printed out a second copy of the kit on normal paper as opposed to trying to build these tiny pieces in 110lb stock.:rolleyes:
I didn't take many photos along the way, so I'll just post these;
897028970389704
Typical of the process was rolling these 1/32" tail pipes;
89705
I wound up abandoning a few pieces for sanity's sake and despite a number of misalignments the finished model is... ok.
89706897078970889709
I should mention that I also lightened the kit, not because it needed it but I wanted this model to be in the same value range as the others I've been doing.
