That really helps to clarify matters. In addition, the jerry can rack detail on the fender shows up very nicely in that particular image — been looking for that — bonus!
Santé!

… Not my speciality so I’m going to run away now, Cry Havoc and release the Dogs of Dunkelgelb…
Talking of obsessive hallucinations, every time I look at that bare front right brake cable I see a big black SS officer’s hat resting in the wheel arch. Weird, make mine a treble.

I’m no expert either, but Isn’t the Styrene already the correct color? I can just leave the Horch unpainted … right? Drunkelgelb!![]()
Still been wondering about that object in the center of the radiator grill. However, I’m somewhat convinced now that it is a lucky key. I might just force my theory if I don’t find anything to the contrary. … Thanks for opening that can of worms!![]()
Cheers!![]()

Thanks Tim,
Two of the same figure sets were required MiniArt (35163) — lots of FrankenFiguring and four Hornet Heads. Many gaps remain to be filled as well as undercutting detail to follow.
Hi Dennis,
Holy color/colour information overload!"Drunkelgelb" was just meant to be tongue-in-cheek!
When/if I ever get around to painting/dusting, it won’t be perfect, but hopefully the scheme will look okay.
I believe “Horsch" was just a typo in Tim's reply. Meine Mutter is German (deceased); she would have corrected him sternly.
As far as the weapon IDs, take a look at the earlier posts and you'll see that info. has been sorted out already. I've got the Panzerbusche built and there's no turning back now. Anyway, that's my story and I'm sticking to it!![]()
PS: To make "umlauts" (ü) ... press the ‘option/alt’ key, type ‘u,’ let go and type 'u' again. That’s how it works on a Mac anyway.![]()
Thanks for having a look!

Ich muss richtig schreiben HORCH

... As far as my umlauts go, I tried your way on my Microsoft keyboard- NO GO... (sigh)![]()
Hold down the ALT key and type 0252 and you'll get ü
Thanks again, H.P. for the image containing the fender rack on page 1, it was most instrumental in furthering my madness!![]()
Hi all,
BTW- Not to be a "know-it-all"... "HORCH" is not spelled "HORSCH", nor is it pronounced that way; it is pronounced "HORKH", with a "hard H" for the first letter, (as in "Hay" or "House"), and a "soft "H", (with the tongue positioned very near to the roof of the mouth), for the last two letters, "CH", as would be heard in the German "ACH"-exclamation... "HORCH", BTW, is the German word for "Listen"- "Zum horchen", means "To listen...
