Manstein's revenge The ghost of JEB Stuart?
The ghost of JEB Stuart?
but.. I do have a Ghostly General in the works..
Humm.. any guesses on the final missing item ??..
The turret tarp is some pants material with some foil folded inside to help maintain its shape, the helmet on the turret side has photo etch straps.. the fender tarp is tissue soaked in water and ELmers glue. the crate is a stock item from the spares box, I added the rope handles then tied it down with carpet thread. A couple of left over track links were painted,, weathered and attached.
ok,, here are some more pics.. in no particular order.. since last update, I've added some tarps, a crate, and a helmet.. and some spare track links..
She's nearly done,, just one major item left to do.. any guesses ???
got some new pics to post in a few,, waiting for Photobucket to upload.
oooh... I bet I can guess... lets try.. Mom.. a Saturday Mornign cleaning session.. and your not around..

Lookin' good, P38!! So, all that is missing is the ghostly JEB Stuart!! It's been fun following your build; quite the trip down memory lane....sure wish I knew what happened to my stash of G.I. Combat, SGT Rock, Weird War Tales, and Sergeant Fury and the Howling Commandos!!!!
