"For the Fatherland" Wehrmachthelferin

 This one is a bit of a stretch.  Though Germany did have many women soldiers, mostly in non combatant rolls, this displays a final desperate measure of putting women in combat. "Wehrmachthelferin" = Wehrmacht Auxiliary.


The tank is a Trumpeter kit with pre-stamped sheets of Zimmerit. The kit went together well, including the individual wing nuts on the tool clamps.
The tracks were individual link which I made into sections. 

The tank riders were a set from YUFAN, wonderfully sculpted and perfectly fitting parts.

The commander was of an unknown manufacturer similar to the Yufan. 


I was happy with the overall weathering outcome which brings out the zimmerit details.
