I've built this kit in 1 35 scale. Cant say it looks much different. Wish I had pictures, but that was a long time ago....

Nice job Steffen,that baby must be small to handle.I just got a DML II in 1/35 and it looks tiny,so I can imagine 1/48,but yours looks great,the figure also !!

Thanks Anthony!!

I really like these 48 scale tanks, because you can more or less do them over a weekend and they look really nice oob (of course there is always room for improvement in every kit and of course in execution of the build too)...

maybe I'll get another of these Pz.II go-carts to kitbash with my Bandai Wespe kit ... but thats another story.

I really would like if Tamiya would downscale the Char B1bis ... I have a French campaign road block dio in mind with these two.

al the best
