[Chapter] M206 Sd.Kfz.61 Drawings

M206 Sd.Kfz.61 Drawings

One of the aspects of modelling I enjoy is making my own scale drawings. It's not as hard as it may seem. With a compass, rule, and good references its actually almost as fun as building the model. Careful study of photos, some known dimensions and a good eye for detail will produce suprisingly accurate drawings. Be keenly aware of the way different parts relate to each other and don't be afraid to draw and redraw until your drawing looks like the photographs from every angle.

I have adjusted these drawings since construction began. What looks good on paper sometimes doesn't quite work in plastic and then suddenly you realise "thats how they did it!" and even the photographs make more sense.

When the model is done I will post the final drawings with all the tweaks.
