Africa

Antwerpen 2006.
I put four Dio on the table. With three of them including all my hopes I got nothing.
With the Dio AFRICA as shown I got to my surprise my verry first medal (bronce).

I arrived at Antwerpen open the boot of my car and oh! The Palm was loose. With superglue and some seconds time it was fixed.
The Dio is made of the scrap and surplus parts of several other Dios. So I expected nothing with it.
So shit happens, say the Dromedary.

"Why we get a Schwimmwagen for the dessert fox army "? "Why is it in Panzergrau colore "? "For what is this single snow chain on the spare wheel"? And the African supporter ask: " For what is this thing in my Hand ?"

Image
Centre of the Pic under RES EL ALIT is clearely shown: NO Dromedary!

Image
Something to drink! The top shield in black show an verry important Information!

Image
You don`t want to know what was first in.

Image
If he look at the text or at the Picture?

Image
The reason why no Dromedary ...

Image
And the german paratrooper took simply the bottle of vine:" Do I like these brand "?

Image
The rihgt one is fresh from Europe.

Image
Under witch cup is the ball?

If I took my Dio away someone told me he like the elektric wiring. I look so real :shock: .

Very nice! Did you give the ESCI Muslim at the water barrell a hook instead of a hand? Anyhow, very nice and not too much happening at the same time.

@ Peter
Thank you very much.
How less options we get ten years back. Esci, Airfix and at this time it was also the lonely Nikolai Arab set.
The African supporter is from an DAK Extratec set Mr. Bayerlein!

@ Susofrik
Thank you.

To make him a peaceful man. He got a hook as you have clearly spotted.

That is again a masterpiece of you! Super great!!!!! And again you have to look in every little corner to discover everything and everyone. What a pleasure! :yeah:

Water tank or it was rather a poison barrel? 'Schwimmwagen' middle of the desert - it could indeed sometimes strong rain! Thus better to have something there! Sunburn vs Tatoobodyart. And so on .... :-D

The 'shell game' for me is the eye-catcher! Fantastic!!!!!

Thank you for your verry nice comment.
Yes, I remember during the build, the "Shell game" liked it very much.
I was not sure at this time if something small like that will be possible to do to look right.
