Inside the Academy 13401 1/72 German Guel Tank & Stiwimm Build

The Academy 13401 kit presents a faithful 1/72 interpretation of the German Guel Tank and Stiwimm with clean injection-moulded parts. The layout supports an attentive build process where careful fitting and painting yield a tidy scale replica. This model is tailored to modellers who prefer detailed, small-scale military subjects.

Context and Design Notes

The Guel Tank and Stiwimm played a practical role in World War II operations, known for solid performance in different environments. This kit aims to mirror the vehicles physical appearance, offering surface details and proportions that let builders capture the character of the originals in miniature form.

Modelling Approach and Presentation

The precision components encourage methodical assembly. Take time to test-fit parts and clean mould lines for the best finish. After painting and finishing, the model works well as a shelf piece or as part of a larger 1/72 battlefield vignette.

Is this a static display kit or can it be motorised?

Does the kit include paint guides or markings?

The instruction sheet includes suggested colour schemes and marking references. Paint and any additional decal sets are not included and may be sourced separately.

How long should I expect the build to take?

Build time varies with experience. For careful assembly and painting, allow several evenings or weekend sessions to achieve a neat result.
