Alex KThank you all, gentlemen, for the interest, comments, likes (and again apologies for the crappy pics of the model). Yes, the plan is to add 1 or 2 figures, I've set my mind on which ones and I'm gonna order them soon - after they arrive, I'll try to take some better photos.

Alex KThanks for the comment, John, and the likes, gentlemen - I'm glad you found the idea interesting! Perhaps a better modeler than me could make something really good out of it - maybe in 1:35...

Bruce HuxtableDefinately adding the true spirit of summer in the south of France 🙂 The figures really add lots.

Alex KThanks again, gentlemen - Jørgen, Bruce, Villiers, I feel a bit awkward with this thing and terrible pics appearing again in the newsfeed - but I'm glad the whole idea caught your eye - cheers, mates!

Alex K😄 My turn to say wow - thank you Łukasz, I hadn't seen those extra 3 pics!!! And now, for anyone interested, we have definitive markings for at least one seep: 4501-BA8 = NICE 956 = Arromanches I, while Arromanches IV = 3499-BA8...

Alex KFirst of all, let me belatedly thank ALL the mates who have commented and/or liked this little project - if I refrain from showing my gratitude for your interest individually, it's because I feel a bit awkward each time this album bumps up the news feed, since I still haven't posted decent pics of the model (although photos of the originals is all that counts!) - once again: thank you ALL for your interest, I'm really really really happy this project caught your eye... (and - hint: if anyone is interested, my good friend Fyll from SCM Brand: LM Decals
, who made the decals for my little model, has recently found almost the full Life magazine photo coverage and can prepare decals in any scale)2 February 2023, 02:40
Alex K@ Daniel: Yes, indeed, I've seen these other civil, globetrotting GPAs thanks to this article: messynessychic.com/2..-an-amphibious-jeep/ They are very interesting but way beyond my modest modelling skills... Thank you for bringing this up, as more people might see them... and modellers more competent and skilled than me can make something interesting! (and, btw, thumbs up and good luck with your Stalker Landie!) 👍 👍

Alex KGuys, once again, thank you all for all the nice comments, much appreciated! I refrain from thanking you individually, because, as I said before, I feel a bit awkward every time this album appears on the news feed, due to the terrible, low-rez pics of my not-so-great model...

bughunterWith the latest changes the pics looks now even smaller. May be you can provide bigger ones? The official default size is now 2160x1440 pixel, with that size you don't have black borders around the pictures.

Christoph KunzNow I know the best car to put those Beach Girls from Stallingrad (Nr. S-3700) on. 👍 🙂

Album info
Browsing the net for Ford GPA photos, I stumbled upon this trio - and was immediately hooked. Apparently these are Life Magazine photos (apologies if this is considered a copyright infringement). Please ignore and forgive the totally crappy webcam pics of my humble tiny model also posted, I know I should somehow someday take better ones.
