The star antenna is tough because it is so fragile. Waiting for it to cure before bending it.

How you manage at this scale is a tribute to your skill. A star antenna and PE schurzen is simply really icing the cake.

Changed my mind & put MkIII Beobachs w/Hummel battery elements so these two will go to the Wespe battery elements when completed. While I've been working the Beobachs I've also been working a MKIV medium tank platoon.

Beobachs 212 & 214 in place w/Wespe battery elements. Chose Pzr IVs for improved survivability over Pzr IIIs.
