Day late and a buck short, but I finished it on my terms. This is a Testors copy of the Italeri 234/3 in 1/35 scale build OOB except for the tarp.

This build has been haunting me, literally, for years. I first contemplated building this kit when my son was first born and ended up having to stay in th hospital for 3 months. Without details, I ended up carting this kit back and forth to the hospital, but just never seemed to be able to concentrate on building it...I looked it over, cut a few pieces off the sprue, but just never mustered the energy to press on. Well, with the Spahwagen campaign, I finally decided to go over this mountain. It is not my best work, but it is something that needed doing. So thanks for the campaign guys.

Jacques,

I know this response is rather late, but I do like your 234/3! Your paint job really brought this stock kit to life. Congratulations on finishing.

Very nice, one day I'll have to work on that series of vehicles.
Did the campaign ribbons ever get issued?
Cheers

Thanks for the notice and the comments!

Yeah, the German AC's of WWII are pretty interesting stuff, even for a pro-soviet tank builder like me! :-)

As for the ribbons, I have not seen one out yet.
