Italeri 1:72 Scale WW2 German 20mm Flakvierling Showcase

I managed to get to my terrain box and liberate my Bocage and Planted Field pieces and decided to take a few pictures to showcase my World War 2 (1:72 scale) models so far.

Just click the Terrain Tag on my blog to find out how I made them.

Italeri 1/72 scale WW2 German 20mm Flakvierling - Finished

Here is the finished model. It is a pity the model does not come with the proper base you can use when the gun is in firing mode rather than the trailer for transporting the gun, but in a game scenario it should not be an issue.

Overall a nice model to build and paint up.

Italeri 1/72 scale WW2 German 20mm Flakvierling

My next WW2 model or should I say models are these from Italeri,

I picked the box set up for very cheap and you get 3 models in it representing awesome value for money. They are very well detailed in my opinion for the scale but are a bit fragile and tricky to put together. Another small downside is you don't get the full crew compliment of each gun. I borrowed one of the Half-track passenger from my other kit to add to this.

I started with a grey primer.

Followed by my usual Middlestone and heavy wash of 50/50 mix of brown and black.

I painted up the crew with Field Grey and Reflective Green for the uniforms and drybrushed the gun with Middlestone.

Next was a wash of  my 50/50 mix of brown and black on the crew and the basic camouflage pattern on the gun. Followed by a drybrush of Middlestone.

Next post, the finished product.
