"Hey. there's a JSIII right behind us!" would probably make everyone jump qualified.

Having a fallschirmjager nightmare. Mick Farnsworth’s guide suggests Vallejo Russian Uniform for the smock, my original notes say Grey/blue and that’s how I painted the first platoon, the sources I’m looking at show everything from blue to grey to green and all shades inbetween. And my Vallejo Russian Uniform which I settled on (mixed with a little German Field Grey) is almost completely dried up. I hate this hobby :hair: :hair:

A friend of mine placed his on top of the wheelhouse... Upon retirement he decided to sail around the world (or at least until he found somewhere he wanted to stop permanently, which turned out to be Marmaris), but their elderly little dog would only pee on grass, so they put a square metre of astroturf on top of the wheelhouse... :thumbs:

Rubicon Opel Blitz built this evening. Not too complicated but fiddly to me, looks good though.
