I finished the first of the tanks I have for the Afrika Korps this week..
Pz.Kpfw. I.
I've probably had this model for a decade. Originally I'd started painting it grey for use in France, 1940... but as the focus seems to be the desert at the moment, I figured I'd add it to the Afrika Korps collection... and if ever I get to playing games in 1940 France... I'll just buy another one... or three...
I'm not super happy with the numbers and might redo them... or maybe just paint over them and not bother...
Other German vehicles are on the workbench. I have a late Panzer IV (that I've likewise had for many years) that I'm trying to finish up and the Sdkfz 222 Armoured Car that I picked up last month and the first of the Panzer III that arrived last week (which I'm not feeling like I SHOULD have assembled them all at the same time in a production line...).
I also have the last two Italian tanks on the workbench that I'm trying to get together and paint up... they're a bit more fiddley...
Plus a bunch of re-basing/touching up/finishing off projects thanks to having taken stock of the Soviets yesterday...
Cute looking pzkfw 1!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thanks! The crazy thing is, even THIS dwarfs the Italian CV-33s!
DeleteMaybe you need some dwarves to drive it. ha ha
DeleteHa-ha! I think the average dwarf would be too wide! Halflings, maybe!!
DeleteTrue, especially Citadel style ones. I do have those halfling snipers... :D
DeleteLooks great to me! (I don't see any numbers)
ReplyDeleteThanks! Yeah, that's part of the problem, the numbers aren't even visible as they are too close in tone to the base colour of he tank. I should have done a while outline... or just done them in white!?
DeleteExcellent brushwork Tim!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ray!!
