1/35 RPM SD.KFZ 135 Ambulans

April 10, 2020 · in Armor · · 4 · 1.6K

My recently completed SD.KFZ 135 Ambulans.
This is a captured French vehicle put into use by the Germans at Stalingrad.
It was painted using Vallejo German Grey then lightened using Vallejo Basalt Grey.
The canvas on the rear was made using tissue painted with watered down PVA glue. Once dried it was then painted the Khaki colour.
All painting was done using a brush for a change.

  1. Great model, Phillip! Nice brush painting job!

  2. Very nice! Canvas turned out great.

  3. That's not an easy kit to make look this good, Phillip. Adding the tarp is indeed a major improvement, and the weathering you gave the suspension is also nicely done. If your situation allows, your photos would look better with a piece of white or pastel-colored poster board as a background.
    Congratulations on doing such such a good job improving this rather basic kit!

    • Many thanks for the advice re the background for better photos. I have taken that on board and now have a portable collapsible photo booth. So will try to use this for some of my future photos.
