1/72 Scale SdKfz 234 Puma

I am currently knocking up a few bits and pieces to use in a small Nuts! skirmish game and so the chance of some freebie die-cast WW2 vehicles previously included as part of a tank magazine series, was not to be missed. 


Here is the first, a 1/72 scale SdKfz Puma decked out in Waffen SS colours. The vehicles lack any great detail and what there is, is pretty generic, however, they are perfect for my meagre wargaming needs.


Here it is following some washes, dry brushing and basing; to be honest, I didn't spend a massive amount of time doing this and admit there are areas that could still be 'tarted-up' a bit, but think it is a great improvement on its previous guise.


I am continuing to struggle with productivity as many will be aware from my previous posts, but I am 'chipping away' at a few things slowly, which I will stick up in the near future.





I have a few other vehicles to complete including a T-34/76 and Tiger 1 (what else?) along with some more PSC infantry, but first I have the small matter of a week away in Rhodes to occupy me...;)


That's it for now, all the best!

  4. I've always been quite partial to the Puma. I think you've done a great job reworking it!
