21 days have passed since the last update. They haven't slept. at Patrie Officine we have only one word. If we have said that we will publish when the vehicle is completed this will be done.

If then the little becomes a lot and the broth gets longer this does not justify changing.

Finally the head of the vehicle has arrived. The vehicle is ready. Just go to the photo stage. Meanwhile, let's enjoy Andreas:

Andreas looks tense! Look out! Did you paint the figure yourself or get it painted? Where did you get Andreas?

Andreas looks worried and is right to be. If you are not worried in the war you are dead. Purchased on ebay, assembled, upgraded & painted by my friend Dario

So Andreas was an eBay find. It seems that choices of 1/16 figures are increasing. If so, all the better. Thank for showing us Panzerkommandant Andreas.

Here is the Puma in the "definitive" version. Painting and aging has been a mess but I should be out.

The outdoor photos turned out to be more hostile than expected. The spring green of the lawn mortifies the tonal passages of the Puma paint, making it a dark spot.

Very nice, congratulations on your finished Puma.

Its rare to see a builder willing to add such heavy camo on its creation (including a bicycle on rear deck..) and do stress test like you did. I think it is ready for war.

I still have to finalize some details (muffler exhaust blackened, aging and tying the bike the first two that come to me) so it's up to the transport box
