So I ended up building a diorama for my Sd.Kfz. 222 Leichter Panzerspähwagen but it needed something more than just the 222.
As I already had the FLAK 37 anti-aircraft gun on my shelf, I decided to use that as it had some nice figures as [...]
Information from the TAMIYA instruction manual;
“In the early 1930s, under weapon restrictions enforced by the Versailles Treaty, the German army was limited to using Kfz.13 armored vehicles. However, based on the chassis of an Adler [...]
As I’m a bit reluctant to venture into the complex world of aircraft modelers I decided to start small and got this small 1:35 resin kit.
It is probably a pirate copy as the kit arrived with no instructions of any kind. It took a lot of [...]
My latest build is the Stug III O-series from MiniArt. As I understand it the O-series was a prototyping series for the Stug III and was only used in research and development, and later for training.

I bought this resin kit back in 2014 from (link) it’s the first edition and number 34 of 50. I don’t think it’s available anymore and that is a pity as it’s a great kit.
When the kit arrived, I lost my nerve looking at all the [...]

Last Christmas I got the Takom King Tiger kit with full interior from my wife (talk about real love, giving your old man toys for Christmas).
When I opened the box, I realized that this is probably way over my skill level but as it was a [...]
