I know this isn't technically a vehicle, but it is for a vehicle. Specifically, I have put all of this work into creating a masterpiece (OK, well then...pretty good) SpPz2 Luchs from the pile of plastic that RG provided. Now I need a figure to fill the hole in the turret if I leave the hatch open. Does anyone know of a modern German vehicle commander figure? Or even a WWII figure that can be converted with a minimum of fuss?

I may have a fig from A modern German tank. I'll look when I get Home.

Jaguar, does a wiesel crew that should work, and Elite, og Germany, specialises in these types of figures. There are several around, Warriors might even have one as well. hope this helps a bit.

Ok, now for a harder question...Anyone got a good technique for painting the modern German camoflage pattern? All those blessed dots! I have daily access to real examples of the pattern, I just need a good way to duplicate it without painting ~30 jillion tiny dots. Can someone suggest a decent alternative?

From the look of the pattern I think you had better get a good optometrist first. :-)
