Andy`s 1/9th Zundapp Combi

[The Smythe Meister]

Good Evening Gentlemen,(And you lot!!:tears-of-joy,
OK then,this build is taking off as of now,no build stuff until tomorrow as this is just the Intro bit...... which is pic heavy as it is!!:worried:
It won`t be of interest to most,as it`s a large scale,and of a German WW2 Motorcycle Combi... a bit of a niche subject!!:tears-of-joy:
HOWEVER.... I shall chunter along..... Box Art........

Don`t understand why the pic is so small?!!..... Nevermind,carrying on......





Sorry,i said it was pic heavy!!:flushed:..... and yet.... still a few to come........

[Jim R]

Front and centre please. Even at this scale some of the parts look small and fiddly.
Jim

[The Smythe Meister]

.... Not that many really i guess just a few detail shots.......




These tyres look superb to me,however,some more experienced modellers may disagree mind!......

SO,for now,that is it:rolling:.....
HOWEWVER,tomorrow i shall start phase one..... must admit,i`m VEREY EXCITED to tackle this one,and unusually for me,it certainly will be far more than OOTB!!:thumb2:
Andy,(Probably on my own here!!)

I'll sit with Jim , mask on still so you will all be ok .

Matron asked " will you be weaving your own spokes ? "

Blimey Jim.....
You were quick off the mark mate:thumb2:,
Great to see you..... There will be no build progress until tomorrow though i`m afraid Sir:rolling:

[JR]

That's ok Andy , Jim is going to explain the benefits of a tidy bench !

Yourself and Jim are MORE than welcomed ..... but i don`t want you two fighting over the Popcorn!!:surprised::tears-of-joy:
As for the Spokes... I actually looked at them and wondered just how "Too big" they are,,, must admit that i`ve not measured them yet.... but i AM on the case:thumb2:
Please stall Matron a little.... I`m sure you have power over her!!

I will take a front row seat. Often thought of getting one of these.
Are you going to re-spoke the wheels. I did my Triumph in the same scale and it wasn't that hard. Fiddly but not hard.

[Tim Marlow]

Well I’ve tested clear so I’m just going to sit here with a self satisfied grin on my face. Pity it’s the Zundapp though, good looking kit of an ugly bike I think.

[Guest]

I built the Dragon issue of the Kettenkrad (all these 1:9 military bike kits originate at ESCI) very long ago, and liked it as a kit. Motorbikes aren’t really my thing, but this looks like it will be a good kit. Too bad about the lettering on the jerrycan, though — that shows the model’s age, really.

[Tworrs]

I too will be following this one, something a bit different.

That looks like it'll be a lot of fun Andy. So much scope for all sorts of shenanigans.
