you never cease to amaze me, Andy! I've been following it for a long time on HLPZ forum and now here too

It would be good for us to have someone as skilled as you in the Panzodrom, wouldn't you be interested in coming for a while? ;D ;)

By the way, where do you get so many figures?

I see in the photos with snow that there are some buildings that are always installed, what material are they made of?

best regards!
Jussek

Many of those figures are from Asiatam:

Soime of them are hand painted. Not super detailed but good enough for battlefield ;)

good morning,

Thank you for your kind words :clap:

@ Jussek, jes,Michal write it, some of the figures are from Asiatam, not the best quality, but for the palyground super. Some of them you get already paintet, for ca. 17-25€, thats total fair.
I also use figures from Licmas-Tank, some are also complet paintet and a better quality. But abit more expensive, but i think also a very good price for that what you get. Ca 25-35€.
Here you can find some of them:
https://heng-long-panzer.de/de/1-16-mil ... en-bemalt/

The buildings that are always on the ground, they normaly for G scale train, LGB, from Piko ore Pola, a bitt to smal (1:22,5), but in the background all right and good for me. And they made of "poly" and made for all weather.

@ Will, Thank you :thumbup: I have some models collectet in the last 15 jears 8) But not all of them you see in the videos are mine..... :'( :D
And jes, i will keep up the work and let you know :thumbup:

Now im working on a Torbogenkran, from Lukas/Fertigungswerk16 (but sorryly not active annymore)
It was a chep one, cause a lot of parts were not printet well...but i try my best to make it look all right for the playground:

her some of the bad parts:

Andy,

Fabulous crane addition!

Love the photos of the maintenance crew too! Seldom seen and easily forgotten about, all the labor that went into keeping those beasts moving! :clap: :thumbup: :wave:

Cheers,
