About product

Sd.Kfz. 164 Nashorn — superstructure armor plates 1:35 (Voyager Model)

An extensive add-on set of photo-etched parts for the armor plates of the fighting superstructure of the German Sd.Kfz. 164 Nashorn self-propelled tank destroyer in 1:35 scale. It is not a kit of the vehicle and not a finished model: it is a detail accessory for the Dragon kit, which the modeler obtains separately.

The real subject

The Nashorn was a German self-propelled tank destroyer of the Second World War, built on a chassis derived from the medium tanks. It carried an 88 mm anti-tank gun in an open superstructure, which protected the crew only from the sides and the front and was entirely open at the top. That is what matters for the modeler: the walls of the superstructure are visible over their whole height when seen from above, including the top edge, where the thickness of the material shows most.

Building tips

With large flat parts the most important things are flatness and squareness. Check the plates on a glass plate and flatten any ripple by running a roller over them, never by bending over an edge. Glue the walls one at a time and let each be fixed at a right angle; a right-angle jig or modeling magnets help. For large surfaces, cyanoacrylate with a longer setting time is suitable, because a fast glue gives no time to correct the position. Before painting, degrease the metal with alcohol and use a thin primer, otherwise paint holds very poorly on smooth brass. Finish the inside of the superstructure before you close the walls up, including the base coat, because afterwards you will not reach the corners.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of German self-propelled guns in 1:35 scale
  • Modelers of open vehicles with a visible interior
  • Experienced builders who have mastered working with photo-etched parts
  • Anyone interested in dioramas viewed from above

An add-on set for a kit you already own, not a model kit. The kit, glue, paints and tools are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

It is not. The set holds only photo-etched armor plates for the superstructure. The kit of the vehicle given in the product name has to be obtained separately.

The superstructure is open at the top, so the upper edge of the walls is permanently on show. Photo-etched metal holds a realistic thickness that a plastic molding cannot reach.

Only after the interior is finished and base-coated. Later you will have practically no access to the corners of a closed superstructure.

Cyanoacrylate with a longer setting time. A fast version sets before you can correct the position of a large part.
