Part 1 of my video for the Tamiya German Sdkfz 251/9 Kanonenwagen Half Track, this covers the build and painting of the interior. This model is a classic from Tamiya and has been in production since the late 1990s, a great model for a simple and straightforward build. I have changed out the tracks with a replacement set from HobbyBoss which are really inexpensive and injection moulded.
Overall a great little kit for trying out new techniques and practicing camouflage. The interior is fleshed out with some stowage from the spares box.

I like the conversational banter.
They were designed for a mobile "armored infantry force" that Hitler demanded early on in the war, for his blitzkrieg tactics. Definitely not for tank warfare at all. Love this kit eventhough it's dated . Great work!
Great video and build.
Love watching all your videos, thinking of getting back in the hobby after a long time. Used to build planes in my teens now in my 60s and about to retire. I think I will watch a lot more before I jump back in.
Thanks for the video. My next armor series are German halftracks. I totally agree that open top vehicles should be treated as cockpits.
a card of multi thickness fuse wires from a budget shop costs little but is flexible and holds its bend, i built an old comet minatures war of the worlds fighting machine, 1 amp wire made excelent tentacles while 3 anp made fantastic suspention cables for the legs. The bifferent thicknesses also make braided tow ropes, high volf cables and controll cables, also it you need spliced or buckle fastened cables , fuse wire can take solder, where lead etc melts. not as much on a card as a fish reel, but then you can buy fuse wire on reels, for electricians.
great job looks outstanding
I've just completed the standard hanomag and it was a great build, your channel has got me into modelling, so thank you very much
Great video!
Hardware stores in the US stock various styles of electrical cord (also known as "speaker wire") containing multiple strands of fine copper wire. Often sold in foot increments, it is relatively inexpensive and available in different gauges. After annealing, it can be easily bent to shape and placed where needed. A one-foot piece provides enough wire to detail many models.
I bought one just to take the measurements and scratch build a 1/6th scale version. The 1/35 toy is still in the box.
always nice to how well these old tamiya kits turn out. Looking forward to the weathering part!
To clarify, although a Sd.Kfz 251 variant, this is a 'considerably improved' 1990 Tamiya tooling, not the venerable 1973 251/1 tooling. Albeit not up there with the very latest slide moulded toolings, IME most Tamiya kits tooled during the 1990s still stand up very well. e.g. 1/48 Fw 190A-3, 1/48 G4M1 "Betty", 1/48 Ki-46 by way of a few aircraft examples. In fact to my eye, many of their toolings from the 1970s if lacking absolute scale accuracy or replica detail authenticity by today's pedantic standards, still build into respectable standoff representations, which is largely what modelling is all about. i.e. Can the lay person with little knowledge recognise it as a "Zero" or "German half track".
Good info but I reckon Tank Brusher already knows!…
@@ChampionScaleModelling My reply wasn't only for Tankbrusher CSM. Lots of youngsters & noobs wouldn't know. Compounding that, the perception of "old" is relative. Thirty years ago is a figurative 'last week' to me. = ] Well not quite. Hyperbole I know, but you take my meaning I'm sure. Cheers.
Excelent
👍 thanks
Just convinced me to try another half-track build ! Great video!
Looking forward to the next video, really enjoyed part 1 of this series.
Great video and very nice build. Where did you get those "tweezer cutters" that you use to remove parts from the sprue and to remove any extra sprue from the parts? Thanks in advance and keep up the good work!
Hi. Some fab tips yet again. The end model looks brilliant. Looking forward to seeing the next video.
Very nice! Got my eye on the early Hanomag with the grenadiers jumping over the side. I'm a sucker for a kit with figures. Saves the faff of finding after market figures or separate figure kits.
I built the same kit a few years ago.
Nice video, thanks for sharing!!!
Seat front and centre for this build. Off to a great start. Looking forward to seeing what paint job you go for.
Nice build, sir. You’re a real gentleman
Really well done video. The pacing is excellent, and your decisiveness is good for new and old modelers.
Great video ! love your approach to modelling. Nice and easy , like it should be. Hope you and your loved ones are well ! Take care, Tony
The canon is from older version of panzer 4
Looking good!!!!!! 👍👍👍👍
Great video as always! :)
I was curious where you purchased your tweezers
Not sure if the Stuka zu Fuss just has the Tamiya ammo loading tank crew in it, but the schutzenpanzer version has four figures that Tamiya has not released anywhere else. They fit in with their "German front-line infantrymen" though. Cool build, definitely agree on swapping out the tracks.
You can absolutely be sure!!!
Great video as always. Which camera do you use. Its pics up the details wonderfully
How do i get the hobbyboss tracks?
Good video!! Always wanted to build this particular kit, just may have to now!! Have the infantry carrier version of this vehicle and was a good build. also built the Hanomag version and that was fun as well, especially when I placed a 37mm gun in it instead of the machine gun.
where can i find one to buy i cant find online
Good tip on the tracks and for the 5 pound I would order two boxes😁
*it's Tamiya so you can focus on the paint and weathering, you made a good built!*
How paint interior before body
What kind of oil are you using for the weathering? I'd like to get that sort of effect without it puddling up and draining off. (I'd been using GW's, for quite awhile.)
Just artists oils the relatively cheap ones
Did the stummel serve North Africa
Hi Jason, what do you use for Injection molding spots? Is it just super glue?
Yes, medium superglue and brush on an accelerator (I decant it from the spray can). Once sanded you sometimes get a hole here and there so I just refill that area with a small amount. The whole process takes about 10 minutes no need to wait for fillers to dry!
@@ChampionScaleModelling Not heard of accelerators for super glue. Is it worth purchasing? Or if i'm patient enough - just letting super glue dry! Appreciate the replies.
@@MahkReeProductions The accelerator for the superglue works ,I use it in my work too,it really speed up dry time
Nice build so far. The tracks have more 'Wow' factor than those supplied with the kit supplied, and the price is especially good. Can you tell me where you got them please as I am soon starting on the 251 D and 251d Stuka Zu Fuss.
Late in the war the Germans had quite effective HEAT rounds for these short 75mm guns, so they could take on tanks if the need arose. The range however was relatively short.
If my mind is correct one of these took out a Pershing called Fireball. Poor old Fireball was scrapped.
@@barrythatcher9349 That was a Tiger.
I’m actually working on a dragon halftrack at the moment with an aa gun
I literally bought one of them few weeks ago... but I am ditching the running gear and 3d printing robot legs ;)
Hi very good videos keep them coming do you sell any memorabilia ie stickers etc if not you should tip channel 👍👍👍👍
What is the music at 21:23 on this video....artist/album
According to Scalemates this is a 1990 tooling.
only chumps don't add toolclamps

This was meant in jest by the way. I'm a tool clamp guy.
You need to work on your delivery, we’re not friends so we don’t have banter, how would you have taken that? The whole point of this series is to counter your whole mindset. They’re just models, your actions can put a lot of people off.
First
Yuup, broke the exact same width indicator on my build, twice in fact and the rubber tracks are typical tamiya, terrible, why they tried to make them ‘playable’ for kids is beyond me, they’re just not for kids to play with, they’ed last ten minutes under a kids hands, if that.
