Time keeps ticking...

...and the table is getting more and more crowded.

Fltr: Brummbär, captured T-34/76 x2, Funklenkpanzer III

Been spending most of the evening going through my spare decals for the 2 captured T-34's. You propably can't see it, but I spliced together the large crosses by cutting apart a set of larger decals and replacing the individual sections. God what a chore.Must have been a monk in a previous life. But things are progressing according to plan....just wished I had more time.

Plastic surgery

PSC releases Brummbar!





No, not really. Mated a Italeri Brummbar superstructure to a PSC Panzer IV hull to make sure it fits in with the rest (and to save a lot of time)

Kursk is coming closer.....

Some better pics of the Borg, now with antenna:











The Flammpanzer III is finished as well:





And some progress on the Funklenkpanzer III:

Attack of the Borg!



Attack of the Borg.....wards.

Finished the 3 plus 1 charge.












It will be a right demolition derby at Kursk :) Models are converted Wanze from Britannia (driver and rocketpack removed, sides altered, new exhaust system, antenna and marker, plates for the engine and driver)

Truck Build at the Guild

Yup, another speed build over at the Guild. I cannot resist them, and even better as I need to get some kit done for Kursk as well, plus a few other bits I will show later.

First up, a 20mm model.



 I'll be using this as my Luftwaffe Liason Officer ride for Battlegroup Kursk. Though I'm not sure the Tilly counts for the build as the theme is Truck and I've seen pick ups barred as non-elligeble. We'll see.

Secondly, a 15mm model.








It's another FAW Jiefang heavy H540 4x4 truck, this time a electrical version (batteries on top) and used by a goventment appointed prospector. Should do fine as scenery on my table.

I'm aiming to have a few more things done in time before the deadline runs out.

Just a little bit more (for Kursk)





Not 1, not 2, but 3 Borgwards will be rumbling across the table. Updated the original as well with jerrycans, cleaned up the front and added handles to the charge. Also made a seperate charge.

And the man who will be in control, a converted Italeri Fast Build Panzer III



Working on getting the control box looking proper now, then back to the rest of the tank. Open hatches nicked from a PSC Panzer IV.
