Hi Guys,
I have just seen a lovely grainy colour picture in a book of an early StuG III like the one I'm starting work on tomorrow.
At the rear on the flat deck was some stowage but draped over this was a large Swastika flag for ariel recognition.
I've seen these before and would like to at least try at making one before I admit defeat and buy something for the job.
I recall a recent magazine article where the author had done this. He had used Milliput rolled very thinly and hadput creases and curves into the flag before painting it with a Swastika. I think I'd roll mine out and get a template for the white circle and Swastika prepared then paint it lightly while it was still pliable and then fit to the tank and repaint later when it was fully cured and set in place.
Have any of you done this before? Is there a better or easier way of doing this?
Many thanks,
ATVB
