OK so I have been working on the schwimmy lately and had to wait for some paint to dry. I suddenly had a burning desire to continue building so I picked up the Kubelwagen. I started it 5 days ago. For me being this far is most excellent. All I have left to do is add the doors and top. Then I can weather it a bit after I touch it up. Not a lot really and plan to finish it by the end of the weekend. Let me know please what you think. I went with the old stand by of Panzer Gray. I ordered some Archer transfers that contain some 12 SS signs. They should be here by next week or so I hope.

Thanks for looking.

Hi. "smokin"
OK you can take those pins out of that effigy you've done of me as I've had nothing but bother with my back.
I Will post the pics over the next day or so, I've also managed to get a HitlerJugend figure from the club show which I will add to the 251/9 over the next few days but will place onto the vehicle for the pics.
Happy Modelling
Regards panzermann.

Hi.panzer_grenadier.
Yes they did have the Jagdpanzer Lang but only a few were issued to the Panzerjager Kompanie when they entrained to Hungary.
Hope that this is a help to you.

pg- yeah, i found volume 1 of that same set at my local borders. a very nice storyline like you said, but not many pics. i picked up a new publication from a publisher(?) called Battlefield Europe, on Operation Bluecoat. lots of good pics. theres another book i have on the fight for Hill 112 another very good piece, with a diagram of the battle for villers-bocage, and pics and info concerning the 12 SS as well.i might do an infantry pair vignette about that as well.

gringe88 and others,

Thought I would mention that I was in Borders Book Store last night. There I found volume two of a book called 12 SS. Not a lot of photos but more of a story line about them. I might make a purchase in the near future. It is made by the same company who published Tigers in the Mud and Armour Battles of the Waffen SS. Anyways, there it is.

hey guys. glad to see everyones coming along. sorry ive been away so long, i had to finish up school and some other stuff.

panzer67- thats great, just as long as you have references that of the vechile you are building, or one similar to it. i also don't really mind if yopu use it in another build, i just put in that law to prevent some real cheaters from screwing around and boasting about how many builds they're in. so Sign - Welcome [#welcome]

Hey All,

I havent been around for awhile. Had a family emergency. Hopefully I will be able to get back to modelling real soon. Due to the emergency, I havent had a chance to do a thing lately. Actually more like a month! I just wanted to check and see how everyone was doing. Hope all is well. Take care.

Hi. clint.
There's some reference pics of the 12th. using the Sd.kfz.7/1 in Normandy, but the only reference I've got is from the Battles around Budapest where they were used in both the AA and Ground roles.
Hope this helps you to decide.
Happy Modelling.

thanks panzermann for the info. i miss-spoke, when i used the 251 designation. my main concern is the lack of photographic evidence of their use. if you or anyone else could help in this i would be very grateful.i have checked the books in the original thread above but couldnt find anything on this vehicle.
thanks again,
clint

Hi.clint.
You'll find that the vehicle in question is not the 251 but the Sd.Kfz.7/2 as the 251 would have been too small to mount the 3.7cm on it . the other main AA carriers the unit used were the Sd.Kfz. 7/1 with and without the Armoured Cab ot the /2 also they had the Flak 38(t) along with some 251/21 Drillings.
Hope that this has been of some help to you
Happy Modelling.
Regards panzermann.
