Now then,
I sat and finished these vehicles off last night, mostly just basing but the trucks in particular needed a bit of work on the camo.
First we have a Panzer IIf.
I tried a dark wash on this one, it has turned out a bit dark, but works ok I think, It just looks a bit dirty....
Next I have a Sdkfz 250/3 command vehicle with a bedstead antenna.
(This is the battlefront "grief" model)
Here I have my Schwimwagons, These are forged in battle models and are very nice.
Again Ive been experimenting with different washes, some are darker than others......
I really enjoyed painting these, with the little drivers and passengers.
Last up I have some trucks, pretty bog standard and boring to paint (id rather be painting tanks...)
These will be used to transport my Panzer grenadiers in the lorried Battalion.
I shall have a proper update tomorrow,
Cheers for looking,
Steve

Panther G and Puma Fixed!
Now then,
I have spent a bit of time over the last day or so going through my WW2 collection, and my Panther and Puma were still sticky from the varnish that was applied in 2014!!
I fixed the problem by putting on a fresh coat of matt varnish, A simple fix....Thank god for that...
The Battlefront model comes with 2 turrets, so depending on what you want in your force, you can have either the:
Sdkfz 234/1 Armed with a 20mm cannon, and a coaxial MG.
or
Sdkfz 234/2 PUMA.
An up armoured version, with a fully enclosed turret, armed with a 50mm AT gun
Loads more to come!!
