Hello,
My progress to date:
Except for the door markings, I wasn't planning to use the kit-supplied decals as one would need to put up the plate number digits individually!
Looking through the spares box I found some that seem suitable so I slapped them on a piece of styrene before mounting them.
Still need to work on weathering the canvas top, windscreen, and some other bits and pieces. I'm also painting some fuel drums / jerry cans to throw in.
This is my second attempt at weathering with oils -- and I must say I'm getting to like it.
Less than a week to go!
Cheers,
Tat

Awesome builds,
My creation is the following
only using the Kfz the 88 is for the Flack campaign, really nice 1/72 model!
lots of parts
Painting starts with hull red
Late war camouflage is my preference for all german WWII stuff and below the finished product with some pigments, oil finish plus a bit off dust.
Highly recommend model (the 88CM is also nice!)

Lovely looking builds in the campaign, some I'll be certain to come back to for tips. Unfortunately my FAT fell at the last (gloss coating for decals) and will now be heading for the oven-cleaner bath and an entry to UB16
I applaud all who finished

Curious, what color did you use to base coat your tires?
