Char B were used by the German occupying forces in the Channel Islands (Jersey and Guernsey) during W.W.II. I plan to build one of these vehicles from Panzer Abteilung 213, though I'm decided to build unusual version “flammewagen” that was converted 60 old Char B from Franch depot, remakable things is a new flame-projector infront of the hull, a new housing for driver and a big butt ! for fuel tank. Mainly ref from Walter J. Spielberger’s panzer series I usually used (if you are Panzer big fan Don’t miss it), “Beute-Kraftfahrzeuge und -Panzer der deutschen Wehrmacht (Bd. 12 der Reihe "Militarfahrzeuge") ” from this volume you got 6 clear pictures, beautiful drawing by D.P. Dyer and some interesting information. These are a real flammewagen B-2 pictures.
I'm looking forward to building this kit. A nice feature is the inclusion snap track, a 15 minutes to complete its. Overall converted I use plastic card 0.5 from Tamiya ,epoxy and some resin revet from local brand.
A new driver's houseing was build by Tamiya 0.5mm Pla-Plate ,a visor (Fla.50) from Italeri kit part. Flame-thrower ball mouth and manlet was made by epoxy. 
Fuel tank for flame-projector on the rear was built by Tamiya 1.0-0.5mm Pla-Plate. 
A comouflage net made by tiny copper wire from old motor.
