Thanks again!

A question ocured while posting my Panzer II Ausf. C ... would there be interest about an F type ( because this type was produced in big numbers and was widely used, especially in the African campaign)?

After applying the standard grey color „Wehrmachtsgrau“, the tank got markings of the platoon leader of the 3rd platoon in the 4th company of the 35th tank regiment, that was incorporated in the 4th tank division, fighting with Heeresgruppe B in the western campaign France, May 1940.

I’ll second that! It qualifies as a true work of the modeler’s dark arts.

An exquisite example of a numerous and iconic machine.
A credit to you Sir.
Thanks for pursuing these rare and often overlooked AFV's.
Yourself and Mr Ismailov sure do bring out the best in all things "small tank"

Every home should have one ! ;)

Yes, Ilgar is doing a very good job on overseen (smaller) tanks.
My effort is to get more tanks of the early period of WW II available. So next will be a Panzer II Ausf F followed by a Panzerjaeger I.

Here is a little update meanwhile…
To get kits alive a crew or at least a figure is needed…
