Hi Jakko
Excellent. Great idea to include the figure. I enjoy following your builds of actual vehicles, interpreting old , grainy photos.
What's next?

Another well researched and even better made model there Jakko. Great stuff.

Excellent. Great idea to include the figure.

Thanks I like putting a figure on vehicles for scale, as it easily shows even to people who know exactly nothing about military vehicles, how big these things were — and an Sd.Kfz. 7 is pretty big, about the length of a Sherman and only slightly narrower. A slightly problem, though, is that I don’t really like painting figures, so they tend to take a while to actually get finished

I intend to finish the LWS I started some years ago

Thanks, though I’m sure a lot of it could have been done better

Always a very interesting build from you,Jakko. I think the civilian trying to siphon the petrol is a brilliant human touch,too.
I have to say though, it's crying out for at least a base of cobbles, please.:nerd:

If only I had the room, I would … but any time I finish a model I have to shuffle the older ones around to make room as it is

Another very realistic model Jakko, well done indeed.

Ah go on, it only needs to be a little one...
And you could leave it unattached so you can photograph other models,- it would work for your Shermans too
