Superb job, That really is deserving of a "Great Build". Fantastic work all round. I like it a lot Alan.

Cheers Peter I appreciate that


There was one thing I noticed when I looked at this again , there was something missing , it was dust on the wheels


Good job I hadn't fixed to the base , job done now and it can go up to the room while I star my next project

I like it mate, nicely posed models. One thing, is the half-track a tad dark?

 

[Alan 45]

Cheers guys I appreciate that

I like it mate, nicely posed models. One thing, is the half-track a tad dark?

no mate it's not , there was no designated colour for the afrika korps they were sent any light coloured brown or scrounged any light colour, all there vehicles were delivered in the standard tank grey and they were painted in the field with no undercoat so the paint wore off very easily or bled through from underneath


This one I've built could represent a vehicle that had been in the country from 6/12 months

 

[eddiesolo]

Nice one, thanks for the info.

Nice paintwork Alan!


The vehicle looks very good (as you said, need some dust on the wheels) and well weathered.


The figures are the perfect final touch to this great vignette.


Cheers
