KS600 Motorcycle	Tamiya, 1/35 scale
by Brett Green

Description

Here is my Tamiya 1:35 scale KS600 Motorcycle. A sidecar and three figures is also included in the package. I will be building those shortly too.

The model has been enhanced by Sol Resin Factory's 1/35 scale Upgrade Parts Set. Sol's set comprises eleven 3d printed resin parts and instructions.

The parts are:

• three spoked road wheels (front, rear and sidecar),

• a pair of spare wheels and stowage cast on top,

• two saddle bags and a pair of water cans in mounts,

• a 20 litre jerry can and mount,

• MG 34 machine gun, mount and one 50 round belt drum magazine.

The replacement parts represent significant upgrade compared to kit parts including very fine spokes, perfect 3d printing, lovely detail and relatively straightforward clean-up.

I’m writing this up for Model Military International magazine Issue 223 & 224.

Tamiya kits are distributed in the UK by The Hobby Company Limited for the sample.
