Gosh. That is a monster truck. Nice work Helen.
It must nearly be time for a group shot of the entire collection!  ;)

Thanks Richard for your kind words. As for a photo, not yet. I've a number of undercoated Axis vehicles, guns and infantry still to do.  :o o_o :P

Cheers,

Helen

They are very good.

I have to admit to not knowing what they are.

 Very nice :) I always found the huge tractor-style wheels on some Italian soft-skins, while an entirely rational approach to the moving through soft sand, look strikingly peculiar, but a lovely job on these unusual vehicles.

Thank you all for your kind words once more. I love Italian vehicles. There is something about them that makes them attractive.

I've nearly completed a second Pavesi and then I've two more Pavesi with steel wheels to complete.

Cheers,

Helen

You are building a specialised quirky vehicle park, Helen! Great stuff.

The Italian trattore Pavesi P4 from Perry Miniatures in addition the Sdkfz 254 Saurer is also from Perry Miniatures.

I have to say it's Helen who keeps me supplied with a queue of oddities to build, particularly for the Italians! I've just started on the master for the Lancia 3RO which will have the 90/53 on the back plus probably the standard truck and maybe General Electric Whiskers' caravan, so the Italians have their version of the Dorchester. Oh and possibly the 100/17 mounted on the back but that's some way away.
