15 cm sIG 33 (Sf) Panzer I Ausf B

[Dario Risso]

Well, I start this beauty a couple of weeks ago. A reeeaaally beauty from Dragon, ref. 6259.

Of course I use Jamie's one as a guide

The parts are a wonderfull of engineering. The instruction sheet has some mistakes, but we can deal with it

The sIG 33 has ...120 parts!!!!!

My original idea was to build Dora, from 705 Kp, in France, specially because I like all the signs that appears in this pic:



I've still no decided the paint scheme
Instructions allows to build:

One vehicle from 1PD - 702 KP in France 1940



One in dunkelgelb, 5 PD - 704 Kp, Russia 1943



One from 5 PD - 704 Kp, white washed, Russia 1941-42



And 2 from 2 PD - 703 Kp:

EDITH, France 1940



and ALTER FRITZ, Balkans 1941



Beside the road wheels , I've builded this up today:

It's a fun kit- and I've got one in the wings waiting for the new Voyager update.

Well said Dario that's why i'm doing the interior of my Brummbar. You can only see a little bit but it makes for good practice and I know it's there.

Fresh paint!! I was boring of "Dragon light grey"







The original idea was to paint just the wheels and then build the tracks, but when my airbrush start to paint...is hard to stop

Hi Dario,

Nice work thus far. I've got one waiting in the wings as well - and like you I'll be using Jamie's build as a guideline.

Something that's puzzling me at the moment is how the ammunition was transported. I believe the Bison I had a SdKfz 10 in support, carrying the remaining crew members. Did it carry live ammunition as well? And if so in what configuration? And if it pulled a trailer, which one? Then of course the final question would be does anyone make such a trailer as a model?

As you can see, plenty of questions

Rudi

HI Rudi; unfortunately, I don't have the answers to your questions, but I'm interested in those answers too; I plannes to make a scene with the Sd.Kfz.10 munition vehicle some day. I have not see any trailer in the pics, just the Demag. Have you visited Jamie's pics collection?

If I get news about the Demag, I will post it here

My Bison was stopped due to lack of ammo I thing I will get copies of the baskets in a week or 2

Cheers

P.S: Thanks Guillem!
