Scaling back on internet time has been productive - keep it up. Do you have a link to that photo?

It's in a book, so when I'm home tonight I'll get a scan with credit for you. Cheers!

Hahaha! No, it would have to be a Zis to have been yours! This is for Roadtrip: Stalingrad though..

Finished the captured Bedford lorry that my Pionere will be using for their Roadtrip: Stalingrad. Basic German grey, using an Iwata HP-B+, all Vallejo primers mixed in four stages. The windows were added using scrap plastic and Micromark's Krystal Klear adhesive. Weathering done with Vallejo powders, two colours. Dull-kote to finish.

More and larger pictures available on my blog-thing, here: http://soldatetain.wordpress.com/2013/11/22/beute-bedford-finished/

Great work on this.  I really like the canopy as well.  I have a couple of old lorries that I considered putting canopies on as well but haven't got around to it just yet.

Not had a chance to yet but I am familiar with it.  Most of our crew here in Cowtown play Strange Aeons/VUK primarily but there is a lot of interest in Pulp era and WW2 as this meshes quite well with the general look and time of the setting.

and I've have a soft spot for this period since I was too young to hold a brush... ;)
