VW Kübelwagen Type 82

Today I finished this Hasegawa VW Kübelwagen Type. It was normally a millitairy modelkit but I made it just like I'd see them

Enjoy:





























I'm really happy with this model. It's totally different from the models in my cabinet but i think it's awesome and it was a must have in my vw collection. I really love the old aircooled vw's!
The modelkit was a pleasure to build. It's cool to see this car come together after assembling all bodyparts. Some parts doesn't fitt propperly but with some extra work it would fitt. And I have a bunch of guns and other millitairy stuff in 1/24 left over now

Here's a short list of extra's i used:

- Fujimi Porsche wheels
- aluminium exhausts
- Scaleproduction interiorjunk
- Some decals.

Kris.

Exactly my thoughts. Perfectly built, as we expect it from you. I just think the wheels would look better with a bit more sidewall on the tires...

Overall a nice build, not a big fan on the color. The wheels look good on it!!
