Excellent Stefan, I have all the parts necessary to make thios scattered in various boxes. When (If) I get around to it I hope it turns out as well as yours.

This is a very interesting build, considering all the different places you had to source parts from; it certainly came together well! I was wondering about the weapon placed for ready access in the turret rail, am I correct in thinking it is an MP-44?

Thanks Jim! You've got that right, it's an MP44. I like to put a piece of captured hardware here and there...

Cheers!

Very nice Stefan. Your homework paid off nicely. Good job on the stowage and weathering as well. Have you plans for figures?

Sorry for the late reply Frank and thanks for the comments! Nope, no plans for figures at the moment, but who knows, maybe it'll land on a dio some day.

Cheers!
Stefan
