    Compleated horch flak

    Hopefully iv'e got the right thread,

    I used pieces of these kits



    And made this









    On a really simple base



    The figures













    I wish i had done a better job on the chain, but apart from that im rather happy with the result.

    Thanks for looking, Cheers.

    That's brilliant. The only thing missing is the smoke from his pipe!

        Yep!!

        The dust effect is simply perfect. Well...in fact, all the weathering!!

        Lovely scene.

                Hi Aaron excellent build, I can't stop looking at the pics, I really like the officer smoking his pipe...nice touch!

                I especially like the dusting effect on the kit...well done on a lovely build.

                  Hi Tom, thanks for the positive comments. The officers cap was added from the spares bin...i felt like i had to have an excuse for the soldier taking a pipe break, what better reason than rank

                        That's a fantastic little diorama Aaron, absolutely spot on mate.

                        I think the only thing extra to do would be to drill the end of his pipe out and pop some tobacco in it

                          I only have one criticism, I see one of my Schnellboote crew has absconded again!

                          They keep turning up in other peoples dio's, it's like a something from 'Night At The Museum'
