ShelbyGT500 Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 (edited) Hi my friends In this thopic I will try to create one Bulgarian, military national treasure - Arado Ar 196 A3 - the only well preserved plane at the world The model is 1/32 revell kit with a lot of after-market of course BigEd, metal machine-gun barrels from Master and resin parts from Quickboost The plane will be post-war, from 1945, reg num:2, with one-color green camo and "ОФ" identification markings: The final scene will be something like this: Of course I will start with the trolley and the tractor You can find the resin trolley in the net, but it's over-sized at 1/32 scale, so I will use my scratch skills to create the accurate one for my project. The wrecker is German Deutz F3M317 tractor or some sort of it, and I will also scratch it. And here is the start of this build: Cheers my friends and let see how far this project will go Edited April 22, 2018 by ShelbyGT500 Iain, MikeC, Out2gtcha and 13 others 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce_Crosby Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Now that's what I call “modellingâ€! A bit of scratch building, intelligent use of various kit parts and a great result. Regards, Bruce Crosby ShelbyGT500 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trak-Tor Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 I guess there's some reason I like that TracTor a lot! Now we need some wings... Juraj ShelbyGT500 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out2gtcha Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Lovely! The weathering on the trolley is AMAZING ShelbyGT500 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holzemjo Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 You're in for a treat! I nearly finished the Revell Ar 196 B and the kit is great! One thing you need to watch out for though, is the canopy. A resin replacement really makes all the difference in the world! Great start on the tractor and trolley, I will surely follow along!
