WAFFENTRAGER KRUPP STEYR
This is one of those vehicles known only by three or four extant photographs of which two
units were made at most. In this article you will find an easy albeit laborious method for
making a highly attractive circular camouflage scheme. Both the assembly and paintjob are
very well executed and stand out because of its efficiency and simplicity. Oscar has suc-
ceeded in giving this vehicle a captivating finish.

E-25
This is a mid-run AFV from the Entwicklung series. David has made a few improvements
which can be easily duplicated by anyone interested, adding a lot of interest to this kit.
In this case, the highlight of this article resides in the paintjob and all the techniques and
processes which David clearly explains: lights, hairspray technique, camouflage executed
with masking, paint chips, dirt, splashes… He not only explains this clearly, he also shows us
a highly attractive kit. We’re sure that you will learn a lot from him.

MAUS
This magnificent kit comes from the other end of the world. Such spectacular kits are quite
uncommon. Kreangkrai makes a tantalizing display of imagination, technique mastering and
color. The result is this incredible Maus. As you know only two units were made and only one of
these had an armed turret. This incredibly talented author was forced to leave historical fidelity
aside in order to avoid choking his inspiration and he gives us this visual delight of a Maus in the
“what if” domain which we hope that you’ll enjoy as much as we did.

E-100
The older brother of the Paper Panzer saga has fallen into the hands of José Brito. Expert hands like his’ have
gotten the most out of this beast. This article is quite interesting because José
has made two different turret versions. As usual, he has placed his vehicle in a simple, yet
beautiful diorama, full of different elements and small details which are quite relevant. Here
you’ll find all his “secrets” perfectly well explained with text and pictures. This is without
question, well rounded work.

WAFFENTRAGER ARDELT.
In spite of the consensus against works with more than one author,
Xavi and Michel decided to unite their talents to create this project. We can readily see how much fun
they had with it. Xavi took care of the assembly and Michel painted this kit. This is also
a latter vehicle made in a very few units, and very little information is found dealing with it. However its
attractive lines and its uncommon shapes make this a highly attractive piece for many modelers. Even if the
part dealing with its assembly isn’t very long, the assembly work wasn’t easy and the painting section has
been dealt with here step by step. The weathering and micro painting work needs to be singled out. This
is another highly instructive article and we hope that you get the most out of it.

MODELER’S SCHOOL
This time, we’re dealing with how tracks can be painted. This is a crucial feature on AFV’s and sadly many modelers don’t pay
enough attention and effort to it, failing to match the work made here with the work made on the rest of the vehicle. We show here
two different approaches that will lead you to a similar result.

By Oscar Ebrí

Although it may sound strange, I decided to make this kit about nine years
ago. I didn’t know how or when but since I saw Adam Wilder’s kit
online I fell in love with his Waffentrager and his style. Over time
and after almost six years away from this hobby I returned
and incorporated color modulation to the basis of my kits.
I reckon that I love to search for and force the volumes
of kits with paint gradations and a lot of contrast. I
must say that when I returned to this hobby I was very
conscious of the fact that with only about twenty kits
behind me and with so much to learn I shouldn’t get
stuck in one style alone. So I decided that when I had
made a balanced enough kit whose quality didn’t depend
alone on the modulated base, I would abandon the style and would
pursue less effect oriented ways to work. And that’s exactly what this
model kit is; the sum of the work I did with the modulated bases and what for
me represents the balance between the realistic approach and something that only relishes
on the different paint effects.
