Dear MM,
Nice builds. Is that a BREN gun with the 100 rd drum on the Valentine? Like the
"chain dogs". At a reenactment in Iowa, some of the Feldgendarmerie guys used their traffic wands to do their version of "On the good ship, Lollypop", a memorable sight.

Good job on the Toyota, like the tire treatment and how you** weatherized** the windshield,2 places where some modelers forget!!!

Dear TH-M2,
Thanks for your kind comments. I think that's the Bren gun with 100rd drum. I don't know the "chain dogs", what are they?

Mark, thanks too for your kind comments. My main modeler is very good at weathering.

Dear MM,
"Chain dogs" is a Wehrmacht slang term for Feldgenarmerie.

Dear TH-M2,

Why is the Wehrmacht slang term in English, not in German language?

Dear TH-M2,

Dear MM,
I simply used the English translation, I am sure some of our German colleagues can give you the correct German words. Sorry for any confusion.

The Valentine tank is extremely well done!

Nice work. However at least in the photo the color choice for BT-42 seems bit odd.

TH-M2, I see. No problem.

waldzee, thanks for your kind compliments.

JTV, Thanks. The BT-42 color is one of many suggested patterns.
