Detailed Description

This lot consists of one original Fleischmann N scale freight wagon that has been individually transformed into a unique Wehrmacht military transport inspired by the Second World War.

The wagon measures approximately 80 mm in length and carries a highly detailed German FAMO Sd.Kfz. 9 – schwerer Zugkraftwagen 18 t, the heavy half-track tractor used by the Wehrmacht for towing heavy artillery and recovering military vehicles.

The vehicle features the characteristic front-wheel and rear tracked running gear together with a covered rear cargo section.

The vehicle was produced using a high-quality 3D printer in N scale (1:160) with careful attention to proportions and characteristic details. The representation of the covered cargo section forms an integral part of the 3D-printed model.

The vehicle was carefully cleaned, prepared and primed before being individually airbrushed and hand finished in historically inspired Wehrmacht colours from the WWII period.

The Balkenkreuz markings on the vehicle were individually applied by hand.

The original Fleischmann wagon was completely disassembled, carefully prepared, primed and individually airbrushed by hand. The wagon body, chassis and wooden floor were individually finished and detailed to visually complement the military vehicle.

The vehicle is secured on the wagon with individually made wheel and track chocks and is permanently fixed and not intended to be removed.

After completion, the entire model—including the wagon, vehicle, paintwork, decals and additional details—was protected with a clear matte varnish to preserve the finish for many years.

All components and accessories were designed and produced in N scale (1:160) with attention to correct proportions.

The original Fleischmann wagon used for this project was in excellent condition before conversion.

Please note: the small centering spring that normally keeps one coupling centred is missing. The coupling itself is present. Apart from this, the wagon is in excellent condition.

The wagon was individually assembled, inspected and tested on the track after completion. It rolls smoothly and operates correctly behind a locomotive.

This is not a simple repaint of a ready-made model. The wagon and its military load underwent a complete hand-finishing process involving preparation, priming, airbrushing, hand painting, assembly, decal application, detailing and final protective coating.

The entire project—from the original concept, through the design and printing of the 3D components, painting, assembly, decal application and final varnishing—was carried out entirely by me.

Many hours of careful manual work were invested in creating this model. It is not a factory-produced military wagon but an original handcrafted project, making it a true one-of-a-kind collector's item.

Although the model has been protected with a clear matte varnish and remains fully functional, the hand-painted finish and small 3D-printed details are not as durable as factory-applied finishes. Please handle the wagon, vehicle and all details with care.

Condition Note

The original Fleischmann wagon used as the foundation for this project was in excellent condition before conversion. All hand-finished paintwork, 3D-printed components, detailing, decals and the final protective coating are entirely new and were created specifically for this unique model.

Please also take a look at my other auctions, where I offer additional handcrafted military wagon models. Every project is individually created with different military vehicles, cargo layouts and details. I never produce two identical models—each one is completely unique.

Packaging

The original box is not included. The complete model will be carefully and securely packed to ensure maximum protection during transport.
