Sd.Kfz. 263 - 6 rad

Manufacturer: MarS (KitNo. 7208)

It's very difficult to saywhen I have seen the best resin kit ever, but I'm getting closeto it with this one. I hesitate to say that it is the best, because I don't want to do an injustice to any of the othervery fine kits out there, but this kit is absolutely fantastic.

The resin quality is someof the best I have ever experienced. There are absolutely noairholes or bubbles anywhere, the resin is hard, but not brittle,and the detail is outstanding. I very much like resin kits whichinclude many parts, because then it seems more like a model"kit" as opposed to a die-cast, which only needs paint.As is apparent in the scan, the detail is abundant and verycrisp. I am uncertain about the scale of the kit. The onlyreference I have is the Wydawnictwo Militaria volume #32, and thetabular dimensions for the vehicle do not match the drawings. IfI follow the drawings, then this vehicle hull looks about 1mm toolong, but if I follow the tabular data, then it is about 1mm tooshort. But it is also difficult to measure without the kit havingbeen built. I will check it again after I construct it. No decalsare included, but the instructions are much better than mostother resin kits I have seen.
