Nearly there … 
All decals applied and sealed. I hope to have finished the builds this weekend.

I finally call this duo build done. While it was easy to add the clear parts to the lamps on both, the last challenge (for me) were these tiny PE made wiper blades. This is the best I could achieve. The few decals went on very easy. Final coating was again made with a 70/30 mix of Revell Clear Gloss and Clear Matt.
Okay, in the blue corner we have Tempo E400 Hochlader Pritsche from Gustav Schmidt Transporte 
Used paints (all Revell Aqua):
No. 9 Anthracite
No. 43 Medium Grey
No. 56 Blue
No. 77 Dust Grey
No. 84 Leather Brown
No. 90 Silver
No. 302 Black
No. 314 Beige
… and in the white corner we have Tempo A400 Lieferwagen from Deutsches Rotes Kreuz … 
Used paints (again all Revell Aqua):
No. 5 Cream White
No. 9 Anthracite
No. 36 Carmine Red
No. 43 Medium Grey
No. 77 Dust Grey
No. 84 Leather Brown
No. 90 Silver
No. 302 Black
…and both side by side with some express delivery …
So, I finally made it in time for our own model show next weekend. Both kits are quite easy to assemble though the engine has a bit too many parts for my taste. But everything goes well together. The few problems that came up, like feeding the carpet monster, were mainly made by me … 
I want to thank again everyone here who has followed this blog with comments and/or likes and I hope you’ve enjoyed it. Now it’s time for me to return back to my comfort zone …
Hai noroc!

That is a wonderful pair of automotive oddities! They look fantastic in the two schemes you chose for them-really eye catching.

Congratulations Torsten, both kits turned out great. I hope mine look 1/2 as good as yours when I get around to them.

Good work Torsten. I have E400 in my stash and probably it will be my next project.

Thanks for your kind comments, Karl, Ryan and Andrzej!
I went the easy way with these kits but they can also become more detailed if desired. So I left out all extra cables leading from the pedals to the engine and rear axle. That’s not important to me. I also didn’t use all PE parts and lost 2 to the carpet monster (the small eye above the windshield for the hook of the engine hood). After all I really happy how the funny looking vehicles turned out. A friend of mine is also working on a different van which I’ll see next weekend. I plan to present the Tempos on our model show as seen in the last photo.

The Tempos had their first model show last weekend and this is how I presented them …
… a friend of mine has also built a different version of the Dreikantfeile and made this lovely little vignette with it …

Yes, I think so, Peter. Though I hadn’t much time for my table as I had some work to do like making coffee, washing dishes and mostly selling entrance tickets. But from time to time even I could enjoy our show a bit …
