Finished the Schwimmwagen

I also finished the Schwimmwagen. After adding all missing parts, I airbrushed it using Tamiya acrylics, and weathered it using a lot of oils, as well as mud made from enamels and plaster.

I also created a base featuring a muddy forest road, with a lot of fallen autumn leaves on each side. I attached both vehicles to the base, and harmonized all mud areas using oils.

Now I will work on the figures, that I have planned to add. I will use quite a lot, five resin offerings from Alpine, and I also want to add three to four figures from a Dragon set, that have to be detailed a bit first.

 

The Schwimmwagen

After finishing the build of the Opel Maultier, I started to work on the Schwimmwagen. The kit is from Tamiya, and I will add PE parts from an Aber set. I will start with detailing the two hull parts, which will also be painted and weathered before being glued together:

Most additional parts are from the PE set, with some scratch built parts from styrene and brass.

I now painted and weathered the interior, and glued the hull together. Then I continued adding details and PE parts:
