15mm Marder I

Another of the discounted Battlefront models, this time a Marder I.  Again, I've painted this one in colours suitable for the steppes or desert.  It's a base of middlestone, with swatches of medium brown mixed with orange brown and then dry brushed Iraqi sand.  It's a surprisingly small vehicle given that it carries a PAK 40.

Not particularly well armoured, but a useful mobile AT gun, ideal for popping out of cover, shooting off a couple of rounds and darting back out of sight again.

The PAK 40 packs a punch, at least in mid-War, until tank and armour improvements make it too much of a death trap.

A strangely top heavy look to the vehicle, although the armour is so light on the crew compartment it probably wasn't too ungainly.

Thanks for looking.
