WOT 6 in German hands

[BarleyBop]

On another thread about French Bis1 in North Africa, @urumomo reminded me of the considerable amount of 'acquisition' and 'booty' put into service "Beutepanzer" (in the case of tanks)
Here is a very serviceable lorry, which was in high demand as the pugilists bashed their way back and forth across North Africa!
I'm imagining it in DAK hands, a newly re-issued transport.

The kit is from ICM, with a new General Service cargo bed from RESICAST

Have it towing a Napoleonic cannon
stack the bed of the truck with cannon balls ..

 

[BarleyBop]

Ha, the Italian and French cannons in North Africa almost fit the bill!
Regardless, I believe both of these artillery groups were well respected in the field.

Not so many build photos this time, guess winter 2019-20 was a busy time.
I don't recall any major issues, considering I was replacing the kit bed with the GS one from Resicast.

More stage setting. As I am still learning, I find it really useful to play around a bit with the figures, imagine a scenario, adjust positions, make allowances for other accessories



You can see the fabric bumper added to the rim of the roof hatch



Starting to come together, supplies, mostly fuel. They say an army marches on its stomach, in the western desert, its Fuel!



... yes, I'm looking at you!

The kit came with PE grill! Yay!




Tasks left undone, we gotta get outta here!

 

[urumomo]

Ohh ,
I thought this was a build you were just about to start , haha , not one you'd already built .

never mind about the cannon ,

 

[BarleyBop]

Did he say cannon? That's not canon!

 

[urumomo]

not canon but still dangerous
