This is my latest model, the Tamiya Marder III in 1:35 scale. Its a lovely kit, very easy to assemble and the level of detail is very good.
I painted the model with a sand yellow camo over the dark grey base colour. This reproduces the look of some vehicles in early and mid 1943 on the eastern front, for example during the battle of kursk.
The model is built out of box, i only added a jerry can and a canvas in the battle compartment.

Great job on the Marder, looks amazing!
I really like the last picture, it outlines the gun and makes it look big.

Yepp, looks great. :th: How did you do the track sag? Doesn't Tamiya always have vinyl tracks for their kits?

I glued the vinyl tracks in place with instant glue. it was easier than i expected to create the track sagging effect.
