A 1/144 21st Century Toys SdKfz7 halftrack that I converted to carry a 20mm Dragon Cando flak.

You need one more photo, with human fingers in the frame for scale, to show just how impressive this tiny little conversion really is. Nice work. - Ix |

Thanks, I'm working on converting some Arrowhead Miniatures 250/1s into 250/7s using Victrix 81mm mortars from their German infantry set.

Great work! Thanks for sharing your pics. I've been wanting one or more of the flak vehicles, so may need to give that a try, since I have one of the halftacks from 21st Century. May need to go with a quad 20mm, but the single barrel looks very nice too. Great work on the flak gun shielding, and the safety fencing around it. Where did you get the brass mesh from? Love your other light halftrack conversions too. I've been wanting a 251D Drilling flak vehicle in 1/144th scale, so may need to try to make one of those myself, after being inspired by your work. |

Thanks. Arrowhead makes the SdKfz7/1 with the quad 20mm in the armored and unarmored version.
As for the gun on this one it came that way shield and all. I too want a Drilling, wish someone made the gun as I have at least a hundred or so 251/D halftracks. I bought the mesh at my local hobby shop. |

While I'm at it, here is another conversion of a couple of Arrowhead 250/1s into 250/9s using the turrets from Arrowhead 222 armored cars.
