Good luck with yours...Especially with the rail road tracks.
At the moment I'm assembling and painting rail road tracks before It was drive line and vehicle tracks now these are my worst nightmare

I used 3mm red LED on head lights




Metal barrels *main gun & coax

Many thanks to all.

Here is another wagon I have completed a year ago and I already shared the completed wagon from Armorama forum. But not the building process.

2cm Vierlingsflak auf Eisenbahn

This as a scratch built 1/35 rail wagon model, converted from a 1/35 Trumpeter Railway Gondola.

The weapon is Tamiya 20mm Flakvierling 38 with 1x Aber 35A89 - Ammo boxes for 20mm Flak 30 & 38 , 1x Eduard Flakvierling 38 Detail, 1x CMK 20mm Flakvierling 38 Barrels detail sets.

I have started working on this experiment with limited reference photos and descriptions. There by some parts came out as improvisation

There where few verities of these wagons but these two photographs from "Bundesarchiv" gave me to Idea to build a 20mm Flak Wagon project





There were also useful information and references about flak rail wagons on this book.




I started building the chassis out of Trumpeter Railway Gondola kit






Due to the ref drawings I had to expend the length up to 26cm




Adding side railings:

Cem seriously intricate details on your railcars! the way you make stuff out of tiny pieces of brass and wire is unbelievable. You are making door handles and hinges " look " easy, I know the truth however... absolutely wonderful craftsmanship!

I look in often, and always know I will be amazed by your quality of work.

Have a great day!

Thanks Dave,

I used this fixture method to assemble all panels on correct angles and order.







All panels and doors hatches and decks are painted



That's how it looks after assembly




Decals from Archer Dry Transfer ans markings are painted over by masking...
