I found this little half-track in one of my "bits" boxes. It's a Blitzkreig model and the casting is okay but, to be honest, not quite a crisp as recent kits from Warlord.
I tested a slightly different technique compared to my earlier Panzer II, etc. Primed with AP Skeleton Bone spray and given a base coat of Foundry Boneyard shade. Then gave it a pin wash of AP Strong Tone was (from a bottle not a tin). The base colour was used to tidy up the edges and panels. Paint the tracks and tyres black and highlight with grey. Then highlight everything with a dry-brush of Foundry Boneyard mid and light. That's it!
The crew figure is from a Warlord 251 kit, painted the same as all my other DAK.
Base from Charlie Foxtrot Models; textured and painted as described for my other DAK vehicles.

DAK Anti-Tank Gun
More firepower for Rommel's finest! This time it's a lovely Pak 38 from Warlord Games.
The kit was pretty cleanly cast but it was a little fiddly to put together.
Not a view any Allied tanker would enjoy.
All painted and based using the recipes I've described in earlier posts. Check out the "Painting" tab above if you'd like more info.
