Got a few more to add to the captured softskins collection.......enjoy and join in if you like, this thread is open to one and all and is dedicated to "Captured and Repurposed" vehicles used by the Wehrmacht.

First up is a captured French Airfield water bowser....

Nice work. Must admit to not seeing the thread before? My loss though :thumb2:

[Mini Me]

Thanks Mark, that bowser was fun, I got the idea from Mr. Jones.......he never fails to challenge my capabilities. :thumb2: Rick H.

Hi Tim, Glad you could make it. I hope others might contribute as I think it could be a very interesting and diverse subject matter............The Germans would use anything that would run to further their advances.

[Tim Marlow]

My impression was that they’d put guns on anything that moved…..

[Mini Me]

We've both seen that......remember the pic I posted on your Renault tractor build thread? They would have put a little anti-tank gun on a Grasshopper's back if they could figure out how to lash it down!! :tongue-out3:

Interesting Rick. Like Tim I missed this. Not sure how.

I don't have anything to add but did anything turn up I will do.

Thanks Andrew.........I'm sure there are lots of kits out there that could be converted to "captured" and repurposed German vehicles. Not only that, but it would also be an opportunity to do a little modeling outside the "box"......That said, none of the vehicles I have posted are fictional, all have photographic corroboration in evidence of their existence. To me that's what makes it the most interesting.........doing the "research". :thumb2: Rick H.

[Steve Jones]

A fine collection my friend. Its amazing how many captured vehicles the Germans used during the war. Hopefully there will be many more additions to this thread during the coming months

Thanks Mr Jones, I am always surprised when I discover a vehicle the Germans used, that I was unaware of before. Sure makes life interesting. Rick H.
