As to the scale they are 28mm. I use old Dinky models and convert them as they are 1/60 to 1/50 scale. Their jeeps are a little big, but they convert well.

The Me109's are Dinky conversions as well (as is the Blitz Buggy)

The Opel Truck is A Del Prado fire engine with a scratch built cargo bay.

The Kubel is a 1970's playart diecast (Hong Knog cheapie toy) with my own cast wheel hubs and new tyres etc.

thanks for your kind words

Fantastic!
They were all drawn to the Keep; the soldiers who brought death; the father and daughter fighting for life; the people who have always feared it; and the one man who knows its secret....
