Opal Blitz 3 ton DAK

Post by der Vogelfänger » Sun Sep 02, 2007 10:47 am

Being new to vehicles (finally!), I just purchased this DAK offering and have to say simply: WOW

This is one purchase I am glad I made!! I am now a super DAK fan, was years ago, now revisited. The 1/32 scale is really a good size scale and appears to have many choices over a large vehicle/tank/88mm range. Glad I took this plunge. :D

My gray Maultier still has the cross on the door which is missing in the one 21st Century released later. Same technique I used here can be used to make a DAK Maultier. It's on my list but hasn't made it to the workbench yet. :)
