1/76 Sd.Kfz. 124 Wespe (completed)

Thought i'd post a quick picture of this model i've just finished. It's only the 2nd model i've done, so go easy on me lol

A Revell 1/76 (ex-matchbox) Sd.Kfz 124 Wespe, self propelled howitzer.

Picked it up on ebay for £2.50 posted.

It came with a small diorama base (sand/rocks/palm tree) to display it on, as you can see! there's also 2 little figures to display with it, one guy on his knee with a spanner and an officer with binoculars. I still need to paint the flesh on those though so they're not in the photo.

Was a fairly simple build, none major problems. I chose the 21st Panzer Division Afrika Korps paint/decal scheme, as the paint scheme was rather simple as you can see lol

The tracks were originally silver and it had no painting instructions for them, so i ended up doing them black as the silver looked stupid

Anyways, i'll get some more pictures up sometime, but im fairly pleased with how it turned out and i learned some more during the build.
