1/35 Sd.kfz222 North Africa

By: shaneoye33 (Spokane, Wa.)

I just finish building this armored car, this is a great adition to my Africa core collection, it even comes with a motor cycle and rider, a photo etched top hatch really sets this armored car off and the Africa core decals make it so realistic, this is a must have if your that WWII armour collector, Ill build a second one of these for my Europe armour collection.

This is a very nice model

By: rarem37

This builds into a very nice model. You can use most any unit camo and markings on it. The served in most theaters of the war.
