A verry dashing Mein Herr unt Offizier. Stellar conversion, he will look like like he really owns that AC... and even the rest of North Africa.

Lovely stuff. I'd be tempted to add a U.S. halftrack to the German force, as a tribute to all those war movies from the 50s and 60s that did so because they couldn't get hold of genuine German ones.  :)

That is a brilliant idea - thanks Dylan. I can then re-enact Ice Cold in Alex, as I have the Perry character figure set  ;)

Thanks Peder. He just turned out looking that way. Serendipity!  lol

He actually looks disturbingly like a younger Marlon Brando. Hidden Perry tribute to The Young Lions or is The Wild One. Captain Blood’s choice of Marlon as blonde suggests the former.

I HATED that, germans in american vehicles, even when I was a a young thing in breeches. Pattons tanks with iron crosses, and M3 halftracks imposturing as Hannovags, forsooth!

It took some time for me to modify my disgust, as I learnt that battle field vehicle pilfering was quite the thing during WWII, especially in the North Africa theater.

And finally...

Here he is with his ride :)











And in possibly over-revealing close up, bearing in mind that in real life the actual model is all of 3 inches long...  :)
