Matchbox Panzer II ohne Aufbau

 This post is a bit of a blast from the past. Back in Febuary 2009 http://plasticwarriors.blogspot.com/2009/02/nice-surpise.html I posted that I had received a Matchbox Panzer II without a turret and was planning on converting it into a Ohne Aufbau or turret less engineering/pioneer vehicle.

 Finally yesterday looking for something different to work on I actually did it.

 In a rather simple piece of conversion work I added a roof to the turret ring. I also added a towing wire, MG42 and some sort of handle rail at the front.

 And some stowage to the rear deck.

 The roof to the turret ring was a Fujimi Sherman turret floor, and the surrounding area was the floor from a Fujimi Panzer IV.

 Stowage was gathered from the spares box, with a jerrican from Al. Hard plastic figure from an old kit that I cannot remember. He does look very much like a Tamyia figure though...Perhaps ex Hasegawa.

All in all, not a bad hours work I think.

Model on!
