Well my latest build that I'm doing for a Group Build on Discord. Dragons 1/35 Sd.Kfz. 251/22 I've built several of Dragons 251 kits so I know what I'm getting into. The only really place to watch is getting the floor and sidewalls lined up correctly.
A video showing what's in the box
Then got some work done on this over the past week just haven't had much time till now to post anything.
Next I will be working on painting the interior.
Video of the build up to painting
Thanks for looking in!
Skol!

Watched the video this morning with my coffee, very informative, as I have the same kit in the stash, but have not built a DML 251 before.

Always liked the 251s. I know Bish is a huge fan. I don't know where you guys get the patience to build those tracks . That and roadwheels keep me away from most armor subjects. Probably a good thing considering my stash would be 2x.
Great work so far Clint. Looking forward to the rest of this build.

Great start Clint! I haven’t built a Dragon kit in years, so I can sympathize with your approach on this 251. Study the instructions well, test fit the parts, then commit to gluing…

They can be a bit tricky, the Ausf. C is a lot harder to line up compared to this Ausf. DScruffy wrote:Watched the video this morning with my coffee, very informative, as I have the same kit in the stash, but have not built a DML 251 before.
Thank you! I don't mind these tracks that can be made workable, if the kit tracks aren't workable I'll go AM I won't fight indy tracks or trying to paint rubber tracks again. That's just me nothing wrong with them and guys can make them look amazing I just don't have the time or want to use them anymore.keavdog wrote:Always liked the 251s. I know Bish is a huge fan.

Thank you Carlos! Like every Dragon kit test fitting is key and don't be afraid to deviate from the flow of the instructions. They lie to youStikpusher wrote:Great start Clint!

Beautiful work so far. This is amazing.
I have to ask though, what is 'Discord'? I play an online game and many of the clans recruiting state that Discord is mandatory for membership. Needless to say, I don't join those.
Keep ti coming man! I also know about Dragon instructions as I've built almost their entire line of 1/72 armor models. Yeah, their instructions are an exercise in creative reading....

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.

Thank you Mark! Sometimes I wonder if who ever makes the Dragon instructions have ever seen the kit.
Discord is kind of a forum server that in the gaming side is mostly used for voice chat and planning. The server hosting the GB is called model idiots, a great bunch of guys

Re: Dragon 1/35 Sd.Kfz. 251/22
I've been working on painting the leather and wooden interior parts this week.
I think everything turned out looking good, the driver seat I think looks awesome too bad it will be extremely hard to see on the finished model
A video of how I painted these
Thank you all for looking in!
