“This is an interesting kit of a prototype German amphibious vehicle,” Bill says of his 1/35 scale Panzerfahre Gepanzerte Landwasserschlepper. Bill mixed up mud with plaster of paris, Liquitex modeling paste, and water. He colored it with artist’s pastels but says, “Next time I will use watercolors for better control and ease in mixing colors. After letting the mud dry, I did paint it with earth-tone watercolors to achieve various colors.” The antenna is a cat whisker dyed black and trimmed to length.
