Hi William

For what I can see this looks really cool. The only question I have is were these two ever used together like this ?

I like your camo scheme on the Panzerspahwagen but is it a diifferent one on the Flakvierling?

yes, it's slightly different on the Flakvierling, I 've seen in pictures where there are variations on the same thing towards the later war. Thanks for commenting

Hi Harry,

though I have never seen pics of this combination, it seems that by the end of the war the Germans used any vehicle they could get their hands on to tow stuff (even if it was officialy beyond the limits of the towing vehicle).

I have seen combinations of the single barrel Flak being towed by civilian vehicles. So I would say, assuming the Sd.Kfz. 234 is not too much overburdened, this is a possible combination.

Hope this helps,

Harm.

Hi Dubdubs,

the model and the idea look very good. It is beyond anything what I am able to build at the moment.

Just one question:

Is this going to be placed in a diorama? Because to me it screams "vignette" or "diorama"...

Cheers,

Harm

Thanks for the input, I am definetly going to put it into a diorama where some mean looking German soldiers with Gas masks are setting it up in a city, I decaled it, and I added a chain on the towing part, Ill post more pics
