Excellent.

The tracked box car will be great to support the Spinne in my painting queue.

They look really good . Are the doors on the sides and rear of the cabins separate pieces so they can be displayed open ?

Unfortunately no due to sprue space limitation.

Well its nothing a little cutting and sanding won't fix . Always wanted to build an ambulance version with a couple of stretcher cases . Anyone know which company  makes wounded 28mm figures ?

[Pinky]

Use Warlord plastic figures and the stretchers from Rubicon's SdKfz 251 ambulance.  Covermost of the figures with blankets - hardly any converting needed!

The Maultier kit designs look excellent.  Another incredibly useful addition to the range!

Duh , 251 ambulance , I've got it in the stash . Thought somebody made  couple of figures carrying a stretcher ?  Might have been 20 mm ?

Will be busy this week at UK Games Expo, better post this before our trip...
























Enjoy!

This looks fantastic!

There is also a version that will replace the normal 7-plank standard trunk with a 4-plank trunk too!

Wow, looks great!

[ultravanillasmurf]

Excellent.

I can see the Maultier being very useful with the Copplestone Castings Polar Perils figures.

After a few months of fiddling around on this minor project,
finally get the initial sprue layout done!





Any comments?

[stevepalffy]

Can't wait for these

[ultravanillasmurf]

That looks good.

Now, who wants to do plastic German infantry in cold weather gear?

This isn't a minor project, it's another great kit subject!  I would buy several of these.
