20mm WW2 Painted German Opel Blitz.....

....by 4 from Britannia Miniatures and now available from Grubby Tanks, not the greatest sculpt or paint job but will do the job during the invasion.

  1. A solid looking convoy for the invasion, I'd agree.

  2. I have just one of these from Airfix on my pile to be built when I get around to it. It will take more time and work, maybe turn out better somehow, for the modelling purist, with more parts sticking out but I would really rather have four or more ready-built and ready to go with less parts. In fact even no parts if possible would be the way to go. I did buy another model to the wrong scale while I was at it and remembered a couple of your posts when I realized it. A 1/48 plane with several 1/72.

  3. They don't look too bad to me Lurker. Doesn't matter how bad the paint job is when viewed from the other side of the table anyway.

  8. No invasion is without a supply truck of sorts.

    The next worse thing infantry men feared after a battle. Being whisked away into another one.

  11. They all look cool and ready for action. For what its worth the sheet above the cabin would have been used to camouflage the truck, so maybe a green colour.

  13. I've got the German trucks from Pegasus. Two to a box and easy-build. Decent details too.
    Highly recommended.

  17. These look almost like hand drawn pictures rather than replicas, but I guess they would do the job.

  29. The idea of putting removable canvas tops is pretty cool. and did you do the paint job yourself? or did you purchase that way?
