I finally got to the "finished" stage of my SdKfz 222 1:35 scale model!
It's meant to picture an aged 222 of the Großdeutschland division, with original dark grey German vehicle color painted over with late-war dark yellow in a camouflage pattern, then given a whitewash for the Russian winter.
It's built from the Tamiya #35270 box (
picture), with some homemade gas can holders from strips of soda can, a few aftermarket metal parts and a turret canvas made of paper. (How did Relic come up with this? I can't find any real photos of this canvas!)
Painting is done with Humbrol model enamels and acrylics and cheap oil paints you can get from any painting store.
The snow is household sodium carbonate, fixed with thinned PVA glue.
I never expected it to turn out this good
Here's some pictures!

Now to build a nice glass container so it won't get dusty while sitting on my desk inspiring me to play CoH2..
