I decided to build this “baby” - Mercedes Wolf. I’ll do the Black Dog conversion and DEF Model wheels. I have a dilemma - I am interested in a special forces vehicle (KSK) and at the same time the conversion is to a Bundeswehr vehicle.

I am looking for photos of a vehicle in this camouflage. Anyone have?

The handles are attached incorrectly. The lock belongs to the back.

I consider my attempt to paint this camouflage successful. PS- I could not tear off the handles and stick correctly (CA Glue). My mistake

Hi Makiwawa, pics of the KSK Wolf are VERY rare. I found two pics in “Special Forces - War on terrorism in Afghanistan” by Eric Micheletti published by Histoire & Collections. What I saw that KSK used long wheelbase Wolf. They also borrowed HMMWV from the US. Currently KSK uses the Aufklärungs-und Gefechtsfahrzeug AGF Serval.
But building this one requires a lot of unobstructed pics, which are hard to get.

Hi Bill
I guess the one in the last picture is in fact a French SF (Commando Marine) long-wheelbase VLRA. Here’s another view of a similar vehicle :

Do you think the drilled plate which you struggled to find pre-made (PE) by anyone (for those Dutch rear storage bins) could be made with 3D printers? At least one could define the spacing, the size of holes and thickness etc. I realize that the original photos by Maki show the bins to be made of a wire type HESCO mesh, but these have the drilled plate.
I understand that there are thickness limitations for printing 3d so thi s might not be possible?

I don’t know Bill…I’m not sure that 3D-printed stuff could compete with PE thinness. But I don’t want to highjack Piotr’s thread !
