      Thank you gentlemen. #s 231 & 232 are WSW resin Wespe models w/added details. #235 is a WSW ammo Wespe w/Preiser 10.5cm added w/additional details to complete the conversion. The PzrIII/N is a ROCO conversion attempt. PaulE

        Fine work Paul. Where do you source your WSW kits? Rick H.

          Thanks Rick, these were from Fidelis Models where I get my ArsenalM and Hauler stuff as well, but I think the bros from Small Scale Hobbies also carry them sometimes. WSW have the best German 1ton halftrack & 7.5cm Inf gun I've found. Been waiting some years for the promised Preiser version. PaulE

            Preiser has really let us military modelers down. Still waiting for the announced release of the 2 cm Flakvierling from 15+ years back!
            Thanks for the info. Will check pricing and availability at both sources. Rick H.

              Wespe Models has a pretty good Flakvierling, for resin, w/brass turned barrels. I've got a couple. PaulE

                Congratulations Paul on this multitude of verticals and figures, the scale alone is something else and you still manage to produce such detail. :thumb2::thumb2::thumb2::thumb2::thumb2:

                    Hi Paul,
                    just had a catch up on this.
                    OMG you are a busy boy! I can't comment with any knowledge of the subject matter but the workmanship and attention to detail is great!
                    I was very impressed with the infantry kit all separate!

                        A very nice trio of Wespes Paul. There are subtle differences on each one. Is that down to your alterations or are they different kits??

                          Thank you Steve. Yes, #s 231 & 232 are the same kit w/added details to make them more accurate. #235 was by the same company but was an ammo version identical to #241. I converted it to an SP gun by adding a Preiser 10.5cm artillery piece (the recuperator is slightly larger) minus its carriage, plus additional details. PaulE

                            Paul,
                            I agree with Neil, your attention to detail is superb even more so given the scale.

                              Thanks Scottie. Almost finished up #230 security halftrack. Needs antenna & weathering yet. PaulE
