HL Pz III Tank commander painted

Post by Ragnar »

Perusing a few sites I found a picture of the HL PZ III Tank commander that was really nicely painted ,tried saving the image for future reference but failed.
It was at a RC show and am hoping someone has that image or a similar one that they can share.

Thx!

Boy,wish I could remember where I saw it may have been a link seen here just not positive!
Seems it’s was a RC tank show or convention someone had attended.
Was hoping with the number of Panzer IIIs someone would have
painted some crew members and posted pics.of their handy work lol.
May just have to wing it,wanting DAK tropical which I’m thinking either a pale green or Tan color uniform and cap.brn belt silver decorations etc.

There are a number of tank commanders in the scale figures thread, including one excellent conversion of the HL figure.

Good afternoon,
How about this take on that figure? ( from the 'Palace' build ) Mine came from RCTanks.de and was a little dinged when he showed up. He was the first figure I ever had that the teeth could be painted on tho' ;o)
regards,
Painless

I must say I find the price of almost all the 1/16 figures just astounding! And these are unpainted kits that need assembling. 8O
