Convoy! pt3

Exactly, although some call it by another name:


It does show up well on your workbench thread, so no worries.
According to this, more of a USMC pattern, but there were Army units that did away woth the sand altogether.

Edit:
It actually shows up quite well in your photos above as well.

And added some more tubes…

And used some old leftover bits of PE..

Excellent work Bert.

My progress on the Radschlepper Ost has been brisk. I am planning to go overseas again soon, so I have been putting time in on my builds. That said, I had forgotten to take WIP pics of this amongst the other builds I photographed. Here is where I am at currently though:

Flat coat,to be added, a few bits to attach like the strap on the jerry can (that is from the spares box, Riich just give you the basket to hold them) and the tarp, etc to go.

I replaced the vanes on the short shot grill, but it was a poor job. You’ll see it in my next pics.

If it’s a short shot, I always order a new part from the manufacturer. Life’s too short to start with defective parts.

Masked the windows and finished and closed the cabin..

Added the locks..

The Faun is practically ready for primer..

Now have to decide which wheels to use.. 3d printed set or the original (which look much better)…

Some great work going on guys! Bert, I agree on those wheels - not sure that they are any beter than what’s in the kit.

And Denimo, that’s fantastic! Wish I was brave enough to park my builds on a mirror to reveal the underside - that’s the bit I try to hide!
