Sd.Kfz. 250/11 le SPW w/Panzerbucshe 41 - DML 6132

Here are some photos of a Dragon 250/11 that I built a few years ago -- when my skills were still being developed -- one hopes one gets better over time. The entire series of 250s from DML are great little gems. This one has a Panzerbüche 41 tapered bore anti-tank gun mounted on it. The field wheels for this gun are mounted on the rear armour of the half track. This is an Alt, (old) version of the armour arrangement. I have painted it dark grey with the markings of the Grossdeutschland, Heer armoured formation as seen during the incursion into Russia in 1942. The white helmet is a common variation of the divisional symbol and the white tactical sign denotes a motorized reconnaissance unit. The kit comes with sufficient interior and exterior elements to make a nicely detailed model, built straight from the box. There are issues of alignment with the upper and lower armour but its not too bad if care is taken. The kit comes with single link track parts and they are exquisite.
