It is a German military bike kit with one figure. It was built in January 2015.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 BOX PACKAGEThough the antiaircraft tank had not been completed yet, I have started a model of a military motorcycle.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 MAKINGThis kit has practical photo-etched parts and is used to the best point; assembling is fun. The etching of the wheel is of excellent quality.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 MAKINGNo need to struggle with many tiny photo-etched parts. Though the plastic is soft, I assembled it with caution.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 MAKINGIt’s a normal-quality figure. It is filing and adjusting each part.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 MAKINGI revised the angle of this face parallel to the ground or a little upward if I just attached them. The motorcycle soldier looked down unnaturally.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 MAKINGAssemble military motorcycle Zundapp K800 was completed; the trunks will be attached later, after painting. These trunks’ molds are sharp, especially the key and strap belts.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 MAKINGI don’t intend to glue the figure and the seat together. I had trouble harmonizing the right hand with an accelerator grip. It is difficult to unify with the natural pose.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 MAKINGThe springs under the sheet are remarkably realistic.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 MAKINGThe left side, around the emblem, became messy. The others were assembled well, though there are many small parts.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 MAKINGI only assembled it straight from the box, which increased the pleasant feeling of the photo-etched parts effect. I felt nostalgic for the days of primary school. I have made a similar military motorcycle model released from Tamiya.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 PAINTINGFirstly, I painted black to test the hair spray technique on the small model.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 FINISHED WORKMy Zündap military motorcycle was completed. German military mainly used BMW and Zündap motorcycles for military use in World War II.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 FINISHED WORKI tried the hair spray method to this small kit, firstly blowing black paint over it, painting in German gray, peeling off this gray, and exposing black like rust.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 FINISHED WORKBlack and German gray are similar and do not have a significant effect.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 FINISHED WORKThe last step is blowing flat clear, but some decals have a little silvering.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 FINISHED WORKThis handle is thin and easily broken; it must be careful handling.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 FINISHED WORKThe leather seat and the side trunks are painted dark brown and black, washing and blending.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 FINISHED WORKI don’t want this much rusty. Light weathering is excellent, I think.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 FINISHED WORKMy target of this figure’s face is like box art but very different… Aggressive expression. I tried to draw a blood vessel on his arm.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 FINISHED WORKThere is no comment on the gas mask case in this instruction manual. I attached it on his back anyway. In case he is wearing the motorcycle coat as an everyday driver, I attached it to his chest, but this time the position is like the photo because it’s a standard military uniform.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 FINISHED WORKI painted chipping on his helmet. The uniform was dry-brushed after blending some shadows.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 FINISHED WORKIt was unexpectedly hard to combine a motorcycle with this figure. Because I may want to stand only on a motorcycle, the figure was only put on the saddle.

ZUNDAPP K800 VULCAN SCALE MODELS 1/35 FINISHED WORKIt is a motorcycle model, different from a tank. A motorcycle plays a supporting role when it is placed aside from the main battle tank. But this detailed kit has many excellent parts and has value to assemble.
