Sd.Kfz.234/2 Puma

Andrew Gledhill
Update 01. 16.10.24. Hi folks. Welcome to my latest build. Decided to make a start on this Ryefield Model German Puma Armoured Car. So far, I have made up the axles and running gear on the lower hull. Each wheel is steerable, with the front and rear axles being linked together to position the wheels in a steering state. The steering linkages had to be fitted onto the axles by melting the end of the rods with a heated screwdriver head. Unfortunately, I broke one of the linkages for the rear set of wheels. This means that the rear axle will have to stay in the straight position. I have had to fill in a load of ejector pin marks on the swing arms. I will probably paint this lower hull in the Dark Yellow colour before moving onto the interior of the hull. The kit has most of the interior and a full engine. No internal painting instructions though. So, I will be winging it lol. That's all for now. Enjoy.
