    An OK build that I enjoyed enough that I am looking at other Halftracks and Artillery more and more....
    All paints Vallejo Model Air.
    Vallejo pigments and washes.
    It is only parked on this base so I can move it easy. I might make a propper Dio one day.

    Oh about that rather large 128mm flak. I sort of found a bit more handy PaK that I could hang off the back.

    The full build of the halftrack can be had here:-

      Lovely stuff Ian. A big half track with an even bigger gun! What’s not to like……

                  Cheers chaps.
                  I will do some more photos of the PaK later.
                  The base is just a generic one I use for long models .

                  If I do a diorama with the halftrack it will probably get a bit more weathering.

                        Thanks Chaps.
                        I might have to have a go at this figure painting thing. a big open bus like this needs some people...

                          I was about to suggest that very thing. That's a really fine piece Ian, you should be proud.

                            Excellent scene all round there Ian,I love it.
                            The base suits the finish H/T and Gun perfectly, great stuff

                              A very nice and well presented model(s)
