1/144 Würzburg Radar mobil version

It was a long story to get this drawing in a printable version. My first attempt goes back to 2013. I created over 16 versions, but whatever I made, the cupola was always a problem. Close to christmas I started again with a total new drawing. And it was quite simple, it worked in the first trial, got it printed and it looks good. So do not ask me, what was wrong, I have no idea.

1/144 and 1/160 Peugeot, a French truck in German use

Thanks to an idea from a French customer I created two new mid-size trucks. The Peugeot DMA as Ambulance and as a standard truck. Both were in use with the German Army, mostly in Russia and other European Theaters.
For Charles I converted both versions in 1/160.

At the moment they are at Shapeways at the printer. As soon as I get them back, I will post here some pictures.

Wehrmacht tank 50 a secret German tank project

Some days ago, I found this wonderful German tank on my table. It looks like a very unknown prototype, I guess it is a tank 50.

Many thanks to my nice and her boy friend who prepared this wonderful and delicious surprise for me.

Panzer I and his variantes

The Panzer I was not the first German tank after breaking the Versailles contract, but it was the first one built in bigger numbers. 
But very fast is was clear, that with this design  no war could be won. Parallel the German army introduced the Panzer II and not much later the Panzer III and Panzer IV.
So the Germans had huge numbers of obsolete tanks. So there is no surprise that for the Panzer I several different applicants were tested.
With the new tank kit from F-Toys you can get two tanks, easy to assemble and a fair price.
So here is an overview, about all my changes to the Panzer I main design I built:

1/144 Tiger transport diorama

Actually this is a mixture from tanks and trailer I just took out of the shelf.
The basement is a picture frame from a big Swedish furniture chain. I bought several of them, as they were on sale.
The ground was made with a mixture form several material, clued in white clue.
The trees are from Woodland.
The rest is only arrangement.
The scenic diorama should be used for my Natter launch tower. But as I still have to paint the Natter and have to design some additional stuff, I use it meantime to show the Tiger transport with the Culemeyer trailer and the Kaelble tractor.

1/144 Renault Fire brigade

After introducing the Renault AHN truck, which was in use with teh German Wehrmacht and the French Army, I designed the Renault AHN Fire brigade.
I found some pictures of the Renault as a Fire brigade. But I could not verify if it was produced during or after the war. As far as I know, there was no Renault in German Service. But never say never.
Meanwhile you can order the truck in the scale 1/144 as well as in TT.
