Hi Lui so the trailer is built and a few figures are going through conversions . These figures are from a different set of Tamy figures that are wearing summer uniforms . I dont think the sculpting is that good , might look better after paint ...we shall see

Looks good from here...300 miles away and on the PC screen! Quick work again my friend!! Looks fantastic! By themselves with the trailer, the figs would make a nice little vignette!! Bring on the wingy!!

Great start! You had me scared for a minute that you are going to do that 109 too. Maybe it is a step closer to allow the wingy bug bite your arse next?

Let me guess... the driver was lost so he asked for the directions so the soldier pointed him to the world of 1/72? Looking sharp my friend!

Meh, cant shout to loud now can I??
Not with the D&D figure fix I'm currently in the middle of, I'm sure 28mm is larger than 1/48 so it would make me a bit of a hypocrite at the moment.
Not only that, I found myself strangely drawn to the 1/48 Pz Iv in the shop yesterday.... After much self chastisation and telling myself I have to many 1/72 scale kits in the stash I managed to walk out with just the paint I originally went in for.... I'm telling myself that it means I have a slightly higher will power level than you, it helps me feel better about not buying it & not joining the 48ers.
** wanders off manically repeating "must build 1/72, must build 1/72...." **
