Tamiya's Universal Carrier Mk.II + Tamiya's 20mm Flak38 + field conversion - by "Art Instructor":

My pics are 900 pixels wide but here they're truncated to 700 pixels wide which is the site's width limit.
so better see full pictures on my site (link below):

I noticed an MP44 in the front of the carrier. Was this vehicle conversion around at this late stage of the war? I've never seen the likes! :)

I love it. Espically when American, Russian, and British vechials get captured by the Germans. Really awsome.

Many thanks for your kind comments! I saw a historic picture of the converted Carrier and printed out for my modeler, but I don't know whether it was converted early or late in the war. :)
