1/72 ADGZ M35 funkwagen armoured car. FINISHED
Baker replied to Baker's topic in Non-ship/categorised builds
Thank you for these nice comments -
Thanks for the likes and nice comments. painting. The last time I painted a plastic ship model was in the early eighties. I only have experience with military models on a 1/72 scale My painting technique will therefore probably be different from other plastic ship models on this forum. First a base layer of diluted light gray over the entire model. Here we go (deck first). The deck gets a few layers of diluted sand yellow (yes sand yellow) Then a dry brushing of light gray and white. And a few wash layers of diluted light gray A layer of reddish-brown for the parts on and around the deck. And a helm for the rudder. Black color on the kitchen vent and part of the windlass. And a drybrush with sand yellow. Not ready yet. To be continued.

Great work Are you sure of these 2 ropes. I think this method was only used a few centuries later.

Do not think that modelkits from 16th and 17th century ship models are always correct. "skyward curving decks" The decks are indeed a little curved but not skyward curved some info about armament https://www.academia.edu/20120786/The_Arming_of_Late_16th_century_Merchantmen._A_Masters_Thesis_from_the_Maritime_Archaeology_Programme_University_of_Southern_Denmark Shipbuilding https://nautarch.tamu.edu/pdf-files/Myers-MA 1987.pdf More info: see my Golden Hind build. Or in this book

Hello, and

looking great 👍

Thanks, We had pigeons at home. My father, and I, were "duivenmelkers" translate to English??. My childhood was influenced by pigeons, pigeons, pigeons. So, my first idea was "a dovecote" thanks for the explanation and the nice comments

Further progress Made a ship's wheel, a capstan, pumps and a "dovecote" on the stern. All made of leftovers from the partsbox And added eye bolts the original parts A new ship's wheel (not yet glued on the deck) the wheel itself is in the front of the axel and not in the rear as on most model kits the capstan and 2 pumps. The capstan (could be made better, but scale 1/110 is small) There are 2 pumps as on the origal drawing of the ship, and not a chain pump as on this kit. The dovecote. It looks like that this "dovecote" served to store the signal flags. The front part protects the rudder (not yet ready) Thanks for following

I'm going to follow this shipbuilding lesson. I will be quiet in the classroom, and pay attention Also did some homework. I have also had to cut down a cherry tree, the suitable pieces are dried and ready for further processing.

Beautiful work Also an interesting site about all units and material of the German Whermacht, the Lufwaffe and the Kriegsmarine (In german) http://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/inhaltsverzeichnis1.htm 37mm ammo http://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/Downloads/Downloads.htm For the moment I haven't found anything useful about the cannon itself
