About product

Opel Blitz 3.6-47 Omnibus W39 Ludewig 1:35 (Roden) — a German army bus

This injection-molded plastic kit in 1:35 scale from Roden captures the German army bus Opel Blitz 3.6-47 of the W39 type with a Ludewig body. The model stands on the chassis of the well-known three-ton Opel Blitz and offers a detailed engine, photo-etched parts and decals for several color versions. It is an attractive and less usual subject that will enliven any collection of German rear-area vehicles.

The real subject

The Opel Blitz bus with a body from the Ludewig company of Essen was built on the proven chassis of the three-ton truck. It was produced from the end of the 1930s and was used on every front. It served as transport for officers, as an ambulance, a staff car and even a mobile telephone exchange or radio station. It was precisely the versatility and the reliability of the basic chassis that made it a widespread and useful rear-area asset.

Building and painting tips

The large glazed areas of the body call for careful gluing and masking of the windows; fit the glazing only after spraying and varnishing. First finish the chassis and the engine, and only then close the body up. Spray the base with an airbrush and, for a desert version, choose the matching shade. For weathering use a fine wash and earth pigments on the wheels and the underside. A gloss coat compatible with the paint used makes it easier to apply the decals.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of German rear-area and wheeled vehicles
  • Modelers with a liking for unusual subjects
  • Builders of dioramas on a civilian and military theme
  • Enthusiasts for vehicles on the Opel Blitz chassis

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
