Michael’s AFV Club 1/35 scale Type 128 Schwimmwagen Prototype represents one of only 30 of the Type 128 built and used throughout the war. He described it as a straightforward build using references for a Schwimmwagen that could have heading for the Ardennes Forest in time for Bastogne. Michael placed a sign pointing to Bastogne on the Schwimmwagen’s right, added Fluvial Topography by Model Scene, trees, and leaf debris to a homemade base.
