Teil 2: Die Lackierung - Trident Sd.Kfz. 251/6 Ausf. A Kommandopanzerwagen

On 2nd Part we are dedicated to painting and finishing of SdKfz 251 / 6 of Trident :

After assembly, the painting begins. Since all the parts used have very similar colors, we give here to get a primer and the color immediately. We use H403 Hobby Color dark yellow. Our vehicle is, even though Model A, 1944 are still in use on the Western Front.

As we paint with an airbrush, we can now proceed. We then carry on Revells
bronze green. Although this color was not then in use, but will be released after completion of the aging in perspective.
To complete the camouflage paint scheme smaller spots in brown leather can be applied. The color is too light, and it will still darkened.
The chain drive is first coated with rust H453. However, this appears light brown to clean and what we will later give help.
Soweit die Arbeiten mit der Airbrush Pistole:
Zum Aufbringen der Decals wird Vallejos Decal Fix nochmals mit Airbrush aufgetragen und die entsprechenden Beschriftungen platziert. Durch das Decal Fix haften die Beschriftungen dauerhaft am Modell.
Um die Farbtöne anzupassen tauchen wir das Modell in die "Suppe", bestehend aus einer Seifen-, Wasser-, Farbmischung von Vallejos Acryl Farben. Das ganze gibt es auch fertig gemischt von Vallejo zu kaufen.
Here's the finished model. After a few days use it already shows various signs of wear and the paint is no longer fresh. This easy drybrushing will be needed in light gray and depicted with a graphite pencil thickness 9B bare metal. From Preiser are now available to the crews of armored infantry or General and radio operator. There
the kit from Trident it for under 20 € in Panzerfux Model Shop .

was mooted in the 1990s to introduce the Duro in fire departments in the former GDR to replace the Robur LO. Robur and Duro have similar external dimensions, so necessary to the existing fire stations no structural measures for new cars had. The conversion failed but the purchase price the Duro, the financial strength of the fire departments overwhelmed.

The model:

The model comes from the House of M and Arsenal will be produced by CMK. As usual, the instructions only a black and white copy and shows the positioning of components on the finished model. Very encouraging is the fact that a complete decal set is included. There is also the model as LUNA transport vehicle and as a Mobile Medical Team BAT.

The components can be easily separated from the sprue with the Resinsäge.

Only 3 devices require complicated machining with abrasive paper. These are the containers and the two side storage boxes.
