Trumpeter 1/35 Flak wagon with Flak Vierling 38

I finalized on my paint scheme for this build. My colours are Tamiya Lacquer Dark Yellow 2, Tamiya Olive Green and Tamiya Red Brown mixed with a bit of Hull Red over the original German Dark Grey i.e. meant to be a field repaint of the vehicle when the Whermacht transitioned from German Grey to Dark Yellow in early to Mid 1943. This particular vehicle is going to represent one from the Herman Goring Panzer Division fighting at Anzio against the allied landings there.

It's not complete by any means. Still need to finish off a few spots on the camo, complete the Flakvierling 38 and weather the rear deck before moving onto installing the windshield and tidying up the black gasket between the main body and engine cover. Once that's done I will work on the crew figures and start building the trailer for it. Weathering is still away's away.

***Again just to recap. This build is actually 3 kits. The trumpeter Flakwagen, the Dragon Flak Vierling 38 (The kit part was an inaccurate piece of shit) and the Bronco Sd.ah 52 trailer.***
