1/35 MiniArt Pz.Kpfw IV Ausf. J

April 27, 2023 · in Armor · · 12 · 0.8K

brings us a lot of great models, Pz.Kpfw IV family is no excuse. In fact, MA covered almost any type of this famous Panzer. this one is no exception. In fact, this is a little bit odd one, this is MA's Pz.Kpfw.IV Ausf. J Nibelungenwerk Late Prod. (Jan – Feb 1945) full interior kit.

I would not like to write much about technicals about this machine in real life. I would add a note about almost superb fitting of this kit. It is a shame that some of the great details are obscure. This is full interior kit with workable tracks, suspensions, movable gun, machine gun… Some parts were a little bit tricky but nothing too serious, nevertheless this is absolute not a beginner kit. It took me some serious amount of modelling time just to assemble it. It needed a little bit of puty there and there followed with sanding.

I decided to go with every single detail, I scratchbuilt wires, towing cables… This is part of diorama with 12 figures, crane, spare parts… I hope that in future I will finish all other parts of the diorama and post it.

The model was painted with acrylics, weatherd with oils, pigments. . I didn't want to overweather it simply because it would be the part of diorama with idea that Panzer is beign cleaner, shaved and prepared for another round of battle.

I hope that You like it, feel free to comment, cheers!

    • I will have to slow down a bit with diorama, there is a baby on the way, just few more days until she comes. A little bit time for her, and some time for modelling 🙂
