Vor der kaserne / "Louder, Fritz!" **FINISHED**

Any subject, any scale, just so long as it fits within the outer diameter of a CD (or DVD, or BlueRay). And some of those famous UAMF extra ninja brownie bonus points if you can match the CD/DVD with the subject of the build.

Inspired by a story from a documentary about the song Lili Marleen ,told by an ex Afrika Korps officer of how, when the lines were close enough together and the Germans were playing the song, often the Desert Rats opposite would shout "Louder, Fritz" or "Play it again!"

The song...

That is really excellent, some nicely "impudent" modelling. It did put a grin on my face. :)

Cheers chaps,

When Molly-new posted his pic of the Afrika Korps Recce group set, I thought of suggesting Lili Marleen as the song to use, but then decided to keep it for myself. This 'two guys, one song' theme was the first thought, then I thought of doing the Nigel Davenport in the jeep with Lili Marleen on the radio scene from the movie Play Dirty
