Better yet name the vehicle used in the movie. I believe it's an M3A2 dressed up as German half-track. Lee Marvin was the vehicle driver in the movie...,

As I remember the Half track was a Sdkfz 7 or 9 FUMO considerably larger then the M3.

Hi. ok have a question? some one (I for get who) had a link to a I think you call it vanilla M3A2. I down loaded it and colored it then printed it out (playing with the size) to be about 28mm or at least looks good enough for me was wondering am i allowed to post it in the down load section for some one with more experience to do a better resizing on it? and defenetly looking forwerd to seeing the one you have built.

Have the feeling that this is the beginning of a beautiful build...,

Whatever happened to Johnny?? (The originator of this thread)

He was one of the best paper armor builders around. I haven't heard from him in awhile.

Ken, it looks like he is still around. It shows his last activity as 03 Jan 2011. Maybe like some of us, has just enough time for a quick check in on things.

He's probably fishing. =)

I'm still around guys

it's just that I have too little time for modelling right now due to my job change.
I'm working on (Kollsnes), one of the biggest gas plants in the world right now, on a 12/9 rotation.And that gives me little time for hobbies.
