My latest build
is the
Sd.Kfz. 7 half-track I have
been building it since the
16/09/07.
Unfortunately, I haven't had a lot of time to spend on it, but I hope
this will change in 2008.
I
am not doing it as an SS unit this time, it will be based on a
Sd.Kfz. 7 half-track of the
Artillery Regiment 146 (mot),
attached to the
16.Infanterie-Division (mot)
or Das Windhund. Winter 1942-43 at the River
Mius, near Mariupol, the southern sector. This is due to the fact I
had a very nice militaria find, which was an officers chest that was
full of maps, diaries, paper work and a tunic, all named to a Hauptmann Heinrich Schmeermann.
I have also built
a 1/6th scale
Armortek Tiger 1, follow the link to
see the build. Early
Tiger 1 Build
My Tiger is
based on a early variant Tiger I Ausf E (circa May 1943) complete with
drum cupola, Feifel air filters, smoke dischargers and “S” mine
launchers,
it is made
from aluminium and will weigh approximately 160kg. My Tigers Number will
be 1321, and it fought on the eastern front, in
Operation Zitadelle (KURSK)
It was Commanded By
SS-Untersturmführer Helmet "BUBI" Wendorff,
of the
13. Panzer
kompanie (Schwere) SS Panzer Regiment LAH, ZUG II, Kursk 1943.

Also see some of my
Militaria collection, I have added some little bits
of my collecting knowledge to the pictures. If there was one thing I
could say to some one staring a collection, it would be, ask other
collectors who the trust worthy dealers are and get to know them,
because there are so many fakes out there, you don't want to waste
your money. I
have a few names on my links page that you can trust, please feel free
to mention me when you contact them.
