discussion North Africa 1942

[Alan 45]

first of all I wish you all a happy new year and hope you had a great Christmas with lots of models

In the lead up to Christmas I decided to try out a burnt out tank so I bought a Tamiya panzer II,

This is what I come up with , the crusader is an old build I added just to give it something else

I hope you enjoy

That's excellent Alan. The burnt-out Panzer II looks very authentic & the Crusader I've admired previously.
