Wonderful update Richard. As you know I've a soft-spot for the French in Syria (and Madagascar for that matter). Nowt much cooler than French colonial troops and yours look stunning.

Right when I started to veer away from my North Africa project to 1940 Blitzkrieg stuff; I get a reality check like the FT17 and the French infantry.  Great show!

Thanks guys...

I've now painted the Rubicon kettenkrad and a few more DAK figures... It really is a delightful little model.











And with some new figures...







Mise-en-scene...



Und Willi has been coloured in... We can leave it there.

Thanks Colin. The kit comes with driver plus two seated crew figures. I used two of them, although the one on the back had a Perry plastic head swap with a Green Stuff haircut. The standing figures are Perry plastic creations :)

And it has a dinky little trailer for carrying the shaken markers too.
Bonus!

Exactly right, Pablo  lol
And a goblin driver...  ;)

Great Kettenkrad, Richard. That strapping young kraut turned out very well.

Great work Richard on the French and Germans (although I am still thinking Wili could be a future Mr Euroboy contestant!). Keep at it.

By the way, what was your record for pages with your Medieval thread, as I think this one will be right up there! ;D
