Sdkfz 8 finished

Hi guys

The Sdkfz 8 finished, I’ll add a base to it at some stage, I found a nice little model of the Temp Vidal G1200 from wargaming 3D, I’d never heard of this car so did some research, seems it was before its time technology wise, but was under powered, so was turned down by the Heer, however it was picked up by the Kriegsmarine, Luftwaffe and SS, I plan on doing a Kriegsmarine force soon (shore party) I’ll research as to whether the Luftwaffe field divisions or Fallschirmjäger ended up with any of these and will go from there, so I printed off 3 in anticipation, it’s a cool looking car, so thought I would share. 

 

Part 10 Portuguese project, MPLA

Hi guys

Part 10 of the Portuguese African bush wars project, the MPLA force finished, all infantry, no vehicles for these guys, all peter pig figs with a scattering of head swaps, being a rebel force I have tried to make them as irregular looking as I can, a mix of Portuguese, East German and Soviet camo patterns and lots of plain military colours. 

Sdkfz 8 almost finished

 Hi guys

Nearly finished this 4D Puzzle models Sdkfz 8 (mislabeled as an sdkfz 7) it’s turning out fairly nice for a wargaming model, display modellers would want to refine some details, replace the front road wheels, replace the rubber tracks, maybe replace the rifles and rifle racks, they are a bit chunky.

I’ve modelled the windscreen folded down and covered using tissue and white glue, I’ve had the extend the windscreen down the bonnet, as there was a hole cast in the middle of the bonnet, with patience you could fill the hole, it’s a little harder than it sounds as there is also the line that runs down the middle, I didn’t have the patience, so I did a basic fill and covered it. 

I just need to paint a couple more details, do a little more weathering, mount the figs, put it on a base and I’m done.

 Hi guys

The other half of the 1/72 Norwegian WWII commission, using NicolasRC’s from Cults3D’s lovely Norwegian figures, bases just have a simple base coat and will be decorated by the customer. This isn’t the full range of poses, just the poses the customer wanted.
