    Some of my Panhard 178 & AMR33s entering small hamlet with FCM36s followed by an FT17, D2s Laffly White A/C & a 2C. Quite fanciful situation, I imagine.

    :camouflage: Camouflage schemes used on the D2 & FCM36 are sort of representative of those sported by some H39s & R35s but crammng it onto such tiny tanks was beyond me so put it on these larger vehicles, ditto the 2C which has a sort of B1 style paintjob instead of the plain olive green. Better on these than not at all, in my opinion. They have drybrushed highlights & Matt Cote but no wash yet (need to do some experimenting). I assume the Laffly A/C is in scale but it does look enormous compared to the AMR33.
    I think I have the confidence to do roundels & markings now that I have painted the yellow outlines on the D2s fairly successfully.

    S35s, B1s, H39s & R35s not appearing in photos as yet due to having old paintjobs from my teens.
    Have not posted up the British & German stuff as its all green & grey, again, until it gets markings that is!

    Now to lie down in a darkened room for a bit...:banghead:
