Will be posting over the weekend, several of the images of this large set up I called "Refuel and Reload" featuring my Mardon Callanta Tiger I, heavily modifies from an early production model to a mid production model in Normandy.
ALso in the scene an Armour Hobbies 250/1, a Major Midnite RSO, a Taowan Horsch pulling a Flak 38 which is being set up, a Mardon Callanta SdKfz 11 half track (in collaboration with RTT I believe) a De SImone rotomould Opel Blitz, a MArdon Callanta 251 ...
ALso from MArdon a 250/9 which was upgraded with Armor Hobbies running gear... The Maultier, I forget who made it, but I bought it second hand from Steve Hoeger of Panzerwerks... A Toy City (iirc) heavy motorcycle ) and a DML Schimmwagen.

I don't know how you get the vegetation/trees to the correct scale but these scenes are amazing. :salute:: Chris

If the six year old me had seen your collection, I would have lost it! The G.I. Joe stuff available in the late 60's/early 70s that I loved as a kid just did not compare!:salute::
Here another multi vehicle set up. A Werfer unit is arriving at the Normandy front, where it will be attached to the 12th SS HJ Division... "Werfer Regiment To The Front"...
Schwimm, Kettenkrad and Kubel from DML. The SdKfz 11 is from Mardon Callanta with RTT running gear. The Maultier I bought second hand from Panzerwerks and I believe is from OSB Locust. The Pak40 is from TUS. The 2509 is from MArdon Calanta, but by this time it had been repainted and new running ear from Armor Hobbies had been added. The 250/1 is from the Armor Hobbies kit. Motorcycle with sidecar from Toy Models. On the background my Grille from Majormidnite. On that group there is also a single motorcycle from Dragon. I later learned that these heavy motorcycles only came with sidecar!

[FONT="][COLOR=var(--primary-text)]Not all Panzer II ausf c are the same![/FONT][/COLOR]
[FONT="][COLOR=var(--primary-text)][COLOR=var(--primary-text)]These are my four Dragon Panzer II Ausf c, so far. All made from similar models, but including the variations made to the tank as the war progressed. First a typical Pz II from the beginning of the war in Poland, September of 1939. Has rounded glacis, two piece commanders hatch and solid white crosses Second an already somewhat outdated version used in the offensive in the West in May of 1940. Also has rounded glacis and two piece commanders hatch. National insignia was adapted as the solid white cross was an easy target for opposing tanks and anti tank weapons. Third a version used in Operation Barbarossa, starting in June of 1941 against the Soviets. Glacis by now is angular, there is extra armor in the front of the turret and the commander now has a rounded cupola. Also an extra storage bin ont he fenders Fourth a later version which I call a "super c" as it has may of the features of the later ausf F, used in the African front in the summer of 1942. It has the angular glacis, extra armor in front of the turret, the round commanders cupola and two extra storage bins on the fenders. Also has the large storage bin on the rear of the turret. These models are without the tarps, camo nets and other bundles typical of them in action. Just wanted tp show the variations of the one single vehicle as the war progressed. A couple of more planned for the future.
