stevehnz Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 I like the way this has come together Greg, a good looking scheme, I'm a big fan of the North African schemes by any of the combatants from the MTO. I've just stumped up for the latest boxing of this kit from Vince & Mia at Modelsforsale, I'm after the markings in it for Sonderkommando Blaich which made the daring raid on Fort Lamy, luckily for me, that one hasn't any mottling.

Greg Law Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Looks great Greg. I know what you mean about wanting to do too many projects. Problem is there's too many good GBs going on at once at the moment. I'm sticking to the BOB one for now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's still plenty of time for the MTO GB and I may do another build there but it's too late for me to start anything new in the BoB or the He 111 GBs. All the best 🍺 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was planning on spraying my He111 today but it has been cold and very wet, so it was a day for staying warm and doing some more work on the Panther. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOCKNEY Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Looks the business Greg congratulations. Do you mind if I ask a question, what colour are the undercarriage components and wheel centres ? Yours look spot on, so I wondered what you went for.
