Hi guys I have been having a long running discussion with a friend regarding various French soft skins used by the 21st Pz Div in Normandy, much is to be speculated, but occasionally you come across pictorial evidence of 1 vehicle or another, and my friend provided this picture of a Laffly V15R being used as a command car, so I took the opportunity to make 1, the good thing about doing the 21st is I can also use some of the vehicles in my 1940 French project, so I have done 1 test print as a 21st vehicle the other as a French one. Also pictured are a Ford V3000 and Opal blitz field kitchens I made for my friends DAK project, I'll paint a couple of these up for myself, and will show more of them then, I am redesigning those vehicles so the roof will be seperate allowing for better access to paint the stove. link

If I may ask, what is your method for painting windscreens on the 'solid' vehicle cabs? How do you represent the glass? |

In the past I have tried fancy windows with reflected light etc, but nowadays I keep it simple, I paint them black, then do a gloss coat, then do weathering. |
