Katiusza BM 13 with 12 Wheels
Posted: Fri Oct 31, 2014 2:23 pm
This will be my entry into the six wheel group build.
It is a 1/35 Italeri old kit, like most of my kits. Which does not mean that they were produced on old die, but that I bought them long time ago.
I always read about people saying how old the tooling is or when it was last retooled, that does not mean a kit was produced on old dies, like most of my Tamyia kits, I bought them 20-25 years ago and have had them in my basement for decades, so the kit might be "new"
LMFAO.....
There are three sprues, one has all the rails and rockets, and two for the truck itself.
If the topic is of interest, please refer to the wiki link for further reading.
While doing minor research, I saw pictures of the Katisusza in the street of Berlin, it would make a wicked rio for this e so inclined, I will do moe digging around and may make this model based on it being in the urban confines of Berlin, when I weaner it. Maybe need to get some concrete pigments.

Nice box art
Decals and tires, hope the decals ar better then the last two Italeri kits, where there was like a white goo coming from their backing
Typical old Italeri directions, OK
Sprues look clean, nice fine detail, we shall see how it fits. The figures look a little flat, and I mean flat or real skinny, I may dig in the box and find a driver.
