Greetings to all the members of the group.
I found the subject matter of the group very interesting, so I decided to join and show you the project I have just started.
The kit in question is the Ehrhardt E-V/4 model 1917, from Copper State Models, in 1/35 scale. It is one of the few armored vehicles built by Germany during WWI, as a good amount of the armored vehicles used by Germany were captured models.
A little more than 50 were built, and they were built on the chassis of a Daimler truck.
Regarding the kit, it is not CSM's best. I have built the Lancia and the Minerva, and found them to be very high quality kits, with a very good level of detail. I also have the Garford-Putilov, and while it is still in its box, I found it to be more than adequately detailed.
Unfortunately the Ehrhardt has a lot of simplified detail (see in the photos how the exhaust pipe is depicted), a lot of ejector marks to remove and hide, and virtually no interior. On the plus side, the kit has a very good fit of the parts and the overall dimensions are correct.
I hope you like it, and as I progress with the kit, I will show new pictures.
Greetings to all!
