This is Tamiya's 1/48 scale Steyr Kommandeurwagen I recently finished, the model was built O.O.B. but has a 'what-if' type of camouflage scheme for a fictional Luftwaffe Officers command car. This model was built to be posed with some of my future late war/Luft'46 aircraft models.

This will be the last 1/48 scale Tamiya ground vehicle that I will build for a while until I can get my hands on the Opel Blitz truck kit. Now its back to airplanes starting with a 1/144 scale He 111.

Thank you GForceSS!

I am starting to paint a new backdrop now and after it is finished I will build another aircraft hanger, I am always looking for ways to improve my dio pictures.

Another great looking build up! I've never been much into the support vehicles, but I've gone and bought a few after seeing your work. Now I just need to make some time to build them :freak:

Thanks very much hedorah59!

Before this year I never cared much for ground vehicles but after trying one of the Tamiya 1/48 scale kits I had such a good time building it I had to build more of them! These things are great for someone like myself who was in a modeling slump and wanted to break out of it.
Next year I might try some Panzers, I have always wanted to try and paint the 'ambush' scheme on a tank but I don't care much for those vinyl tracks most armor kits have.

Thanks once again roadrner!

This model will be seen from time to time in the background of pics of my newly built airplane models.

I am in the middle of painting a new backdrop, in-progress pics of it will be posted soon.
