Dan,
nice models - love the 'natural' weathering!

Must admit that the Flakvierling halftracks were my first attempt of a diorama, back in the '70s - although they were in 1:72 - had several, which were positioned around a couple of the 88s with Kubel wagon & motorcycle, with Africa Korp infantry support/machine gun pits - fairly sure that I used the old Hornby trackside seaweed for 'vegetation' - wish I knew where they went, but several moves and a lot of years mean that they've gone, never to be recovered.Thank you for the warm welcome everybody.
I hope it's ok if I take this opportunity to try and post a pic just as a test....

Maybe a little "obvious" as first choices to rekindle my hobby but they both have a story. My cousin built the Flakvierling halftrack when we were kids and I was always in awe of it, but never bought one. The Flak 88 because I asked my Gran for it on my 12th birthday, I even gave her the serial number. She bought me this....

I can still remember the disappointment. Not that I'm bitter, obviously !
Anyway, I'll stop wittering and start modelling.
