Panzer II Blitzkrieg

[moon puppy]

OK I'm in. already got a good start on it.

I've primed the lower hull with Nato Black.

Nothing much to report, shake the box a little more and i'll have the upper hull done.

I think I have the markings from the Polish kit. If so do you want them?

Problem is James, if would likely cost as much for you to send them as for me to buy some.

What markings should I be looking for?

Large white cross for national marking vice the small cross. This page may have a bit of help.

Just a white cross, I think that would be easy enough to replicate.

As Roman mentioned in the other thread, no extra armour either.

So what's the difference betweeen the French Campaign version (which i'm building) and the Polish one?

in Poland there was no add on armor on turret and upper hull.

OK Guys, lead the horse to water. Are these optional parts that are in the kit or major modifications?

Hi Bob ,

Got to head out to the store in a bit , but have both Tamiya Panzer II's French & Polish campaign .

The French campaign one is modeled as after the Polish Campaign and where the basic PZ II was up armored .

I will look at both of the kits side by side later tonight and see if it's possible to build a Polish Campaign

vehicle out of the French Campaign boxing . Might even have some decals i could send you ! B)


regards
JOEY

Joey you wouldn't have to send, we can swap at the show later this month

Well, that was a heck of a false start.

This is the kit that I need.

And this is what I got

if you want to dig on those pages knock yourself out. But the problem is the glacis armor up front. Looks like Tamiya does not give parts for both boxings.

I'll move this to another campaign or Armored Fury and find something else to do here cause, heck, I already got the road wheels on!

OK, consulted with Group Captain Mike, moved this over to Second Chance and going for the Blitzkrieg Campaign.

Don't need any more head banging. :laugh:

Polish, French, Russian, it was all blitzed. So, I think you are good to go!
Go grey!
Finish it. No sweat.

Cheers,

Whipped this out over the week.

think I can put it back in the box and shake it a little more and it'll be done.

Coming along nice Bob. I know I enjoyed mine when I did it a while back. Looking forward to more.
