wow, these really are great, very detailed. I came into painting/collecting as a total novice so some of my earlier stuff is a little naive but your pictures have inspired me to maybe rework some of these early efforts.

The VW came from a 'dollar' shop in Sydney, Australia. It's just a relatively cheap thing that happened to be 1/32 scale - I have given it a bit of a paint job to fit with the other vehicles. The Hanomags are all vintage Airfix from the 70's - 80's. Picked them up on ebay or at shows but pretty sure CTS do a more recent version. Again all hand painted as they were originally a very light grey plastic.

Bilblas ,

Nice find with the VW...I am going to be looking for one now , would love to paint one up as an afrika korps version...
Also going to be on the hunt for the hanomags...I was always into 1/35 modeling but have found it alot more fun to repaint stuff !

Inspired by Jager7080, I have redone some of my 54mm vehicles, giving them a more grubby/realistic look.

Thanks Joe, the vintage airfix ones go for about £20 - £30 on ebay uk but here is a link to the modern versions. They are CTS so should be avalable in US maybe through hobby bunker.
