Tamiya 1/48 Citroen Traction 11CV completed

Hi all,

Just completed a French-Wehrmacht captured Citroen Traction 11CV. Very easy kit, takes an evening to complete (weathering and stuff a little longer ;))!









Pics complete






ThThis is where I’m gonna put it

Greetz,

That’s quite a nice Citroen, Jurrie! Did you scratch the glasses on the seat?[?] I only have one complaint…the the extremely bright blue background in some of your pics. It’s sorta distracting, plus it casts a bluish-look to the model. I suggest a white or black background, since it will really help the overall pic(and won’t distract from the build.)

Nice work on the softskin! I like the “under new management” graffitti and the weathering looks good as well.

I might also add that is one sweet looking Jug next to it.

Thanks for the replies!

@mg michael,
Recently, I’ve seen a lot of guys using a blue background. Is it not a trend anymore ;)? Or should I just not use it for greyish models?

@wbill76,
Thanks :wink:

@tigerman,
Thanks ;). A few months ago I also posted the Thunderbolt in the aircraft section of this forum.

Greetz,

I never knew their was a trend(of using blue backgrounds) going on…hmmm. Either way, it’s not good for your Citroen, since the light is reflecting off the blue paper onto the model. Thus making the colors different then what they really are.

Love the car, the glasses, and the graffiti!

Great idea for it as a P-47 squadron hack. In the Google Life images, there is a color photo of a P-38 squadron using a schwimwagen as a hack vehicle.

Very well done Jurrie I like the graffiti as well!

Im building the new 1/35 scale version, taking alot longer than an evening on it
