I ordered this kit off eBay for a good price last week and it arrived today…

If you can't fix it with duct tape, you're not using enough duct tape.

I don’t have any diorama planned for this… but I will put it in photos with my RAF builds :giggles:

Isn’t it? Now I need to find a Luftwaffe fuel truck since this one takes care of my RAF. I already have USAAF and IJA types. I need to see if there is a Soviet WWII type available as a kit also… :hmm:

Got a small table top mini vise from Amazon. It's a little smaller than I was expecting but it should be fine.

Last week at IPMS here we had our annual swap meet meeting. Items for sale fell into one of four categories… items I was interested in… items in scales or genres that I did not build… items that I already had… and items that I was interested in but overpriced… I chose this kit out of the first category ;)

There were a couple more, but I did not want to be greedy

Nice. A Dragon kit. I like Dragon kits but sometimes they can be a little over-engineered with tons of parts. :giggles:

Quite true. But less so than many of the other Chinese companies like AFV Club… :whistle: and for Sdkfz sub variants like this one, there are not many choices out there… :whiteflag:
