M32B1 612th Tank Destroyer Battalion, Dobrany 1945. May.

Hi Folks!

I'm a hungarian modeller, this is my first thread on this forum!
I'm currently working on an M32B1 TRV, belonged to the 612th TDB.
There is a couple photos about this vehicle in the allied-axis book.
I plan to bulid this.

I'll use the following kits:
Italeri 6203 M32: the tank recovery parts
Dragon: 6048 M4A1 Sherman: the lower and upper hull and other parts
Dragon: 6313 Sherman MkIII.: periscopes, cupolas, hatches, etc
Academy 1392 Achilles: suspension parts, boogies, interior parts
Verlinden M4 interior
Aber: generic photoetched Sherman parts
+ a couple of scratched parts, and spare parts

The first steps
The suspension and boogies are neaely finished. I still have to add some screws and bolts, on the boogies.
The first boogie on the right side of the tank is a late type, these parts are from dragon.


I started to build the interior. I mixed the Academy and Verlinden parts. The firewall is not for the M4A1, but for the M4 type. For luck, after the full assembly, it won't be visible, so maybe you can forgive it.


In the driver and co driver position I have to add many many little things. These pics are just the main parts.

The first steps with the winch:

It's full home made.

At the turret ring the blue area have to be removed, because it's not good. The turret ring diameter is in 1/35 5 cm. On the Dragon model it is about 4 cm.

That is all for start, please feel free to comment!!!

Regards,

Don
