Zevzda sfkz 222 Armor Car

Zevzda keeps making outstanding WW2 armor vehicles.  The Sfkz 222 is a sweet little model.  But a nightmare to put together.  After about 8 of them I realized if cut the back two attachment points off.  I could assembly the sides and top together.  That got rid of the gap problem.   Now for the Pictures.

Kicking the heat with my Flame Panzer III

Another great 1/100 model from Zevzda.   The construction part was about 5 minutes.  Built these when the BA-10's started to drive nuts.  As for the build part check out Anton's site;http://antonswargame.blogspot.com/2013/02/spending-afternoon-with-some-russian_10.html  He did a excellent review.

My Flame panzer's are pattern off a pattern found on the web.  The panzer is vallejo panzer tan set.  The Red Brown is from Tamiya's Hull Red.  Both paints spray well.  This make my life easy when spraying the red brown.  Decal's are  mix from Dom's Decals and I-94. Both companies make excellent products.  Now for picture:





They still need to be weather a little.  The track on the front of the hull came from some spare track off the PSC Panzer III kits.   Waiting for PCS late Panzer III to be released.
Thanks for taking a look.

BA-10 in German service

Decided to do a BA-10 captured by the Germans.  Found this camo scheme on the web.  Figured I need a little extra firepower for my Sfkz 222 section.   

For a review on the BA-10 check out this http://antonswargame.blogspot.com/2013/02/pending-afternoon-with-some-russian.html
My friend Anton did an excellent review on the Zevzda BA-10.

Now for the pictures...

Tiger I Ace

The PSC Tigers are great models.  Decided to make a Tiger Ace.  Here is my attempt at one enjoy.






The kill marking on the barrel are from I-94 enterprises.  I picked the three tone camo scheme as it seems to be common for both the eastern and western fronts. Let me know what you think.  More picture coming BA-10, skfz 222 and Panzer III flame tanks
