Battlefield 3D Austin Staff Cars

 While my Allied troops have plenty of jeeps, carriers and radio trucks, they don't have some of the smart rides that my Axis senior officers do. So, time for some staff cars!


A pair of very inexpensive Austin 10 staff cars from Battlefield 3D. 1/100th scale naturally.


These are beautifully crisp single piece resin prints, with lots of fine detail.


The windows are decently recessed too, which makes it easier to paint the 'glass'.


I did one in plain green so it will do service for British, US or even Russian armies, while the other has the mid war SCC2 and black disruptive pattern - so good for Europe and at a pinch, the the desert. I added some night visibility stripes on the bumpers (fenders to my US pals) to the green one for a bit of contrast and I figure these aren't going to be in the front line that much.

I'm very pleased with those and a useful addition to my softskin fleet.
