1/16 KT Henshell Late - Kamfgruppe Peiper '44

Post by karel47 »

This was my first Koti i ever made, using cellulose thinner to made the rought syructure of hot rolled steel at those days
added wells with a mini screwdriver and a candle the cheapest and best way to add fast weldings, just warm up your pin of your screwdriver and pull it on the object slightly upwards
finaly add battledamage almost every koti was out of business by mechanical throuble
look at the pics

Superb model, the welds look great. How did you get the rolled steel effect with the thinners?

Regards Colin.

there is no PE on this koti, its more rewarding to do it scratch

the steelplate effect is done by push an hard brush into the plastic when the thinner binds the plastics, its easier done then said, the guy's in our club were thinking am crazy, use thinneron a 500 euro model but the result is quite archieving don't you find

i had placed N° 334 on it but this one was not in the ardennes area at that time so i removed them again

Great job! I am pretty sure the comanders carpola's were bolted to the turret as they were replaceable in the field. I love that you got the wire gauge right for the hatch handles. I have always gotten that wrong.
