Kubelwagen and Rommel
This is Tamiya’s Kubelwagen with Blackdog’s resin. Sometimes Blackdog’s armor resin stowage is a bit over the top, and in this case, it’s right on the border of that.
Nothing special about the build, pretty much out of the box except for the black dog, and that’s really only a few big pieces. Careful painting was enough to bring out the details.
This was going to be used with the Fieseler Fi156 “Storch” model together with the Rommel figure included in that kit, here it is in the process of being painted, still trying to improve my figure painting skills. Base coats applied with some initial shading on the tunic. Definitely a different art form – especially at this scale.
Here’s the finished figure in extreme close up. The lapel rank is from an Eduard PE set.
Iniitial posing of the Kubelwagen on its base, ready for the Flieser.
