It'll be quite a chore, since most of the fuselage details are quite crude and need refinement (those cabane struts look funny). The tail needs improvement too and the undercarriage is too robust. Don't get me wrong, I still consider a good kit overall but it needs a lot of work to meke it look like a true scale replica and not a toy.

It looks like Lt. Von Bloffer, the designer of the vehicle was interned there after a quite rough tour on the Eastern Front on the summer of 1916 where he devised the concept of the armored car, without realising that this concept was created by someone else years before. The vehicle was captured by the Inter-Allied Comission officials after the war, and during the 20s the British used it as a basis to design a steam submarine. IIRC... ;-) D. ----- Original Message ----- From: Harris, Mack To: Multiple recipients of list Sent: Tuesday, April 16, 2002 2:30 PM Subject: [WWI] armoured cars > Does anyone recognize this vehicle? > http://www.geocities.com/mcharris011/246.jpeg > thanks > Mack > ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 17 Apr 2002 16:42:28 +0100 From: "Pedro N.

Wings and tailplanes are quite easily cleaned from their ribbing detail and refined. Adding new ribbing by means of decal strips will need some practice, but it usually gives very good results. The major problem with the kit, if the scale drawings in the recent Datafile Special are to be believed, is with the fuselage, which needs to be lengthened and made deeper and wider. But the plastic thickness will help with this. All the very best, Alberto Casirati ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Free Web. Free Mail.
