Well I fancied building a kit which was quick and straight forward so I decided on this! I wanted to build it straight out if the box as it comes. No extras

It comes with the up graded barrel as standard.

I like the poses of the figures, it relays the action to the eye

The figures are a bit old and tired. They needed a fair amount of cleaning up. Looking forward to painting now.

Nige

Nothing like a nice quick simple build, looks great, can't wait to see paint on it. Are you going to put it on a base?

cheers

For a quick build it looks a good kit mate, look forward to seeing pics of it painted

Nige, curious that you put the extra track-links onto the model before painting them. Do you find it easier to do with the links already on the tank as opposed to separately, and then glueing them on.

Looks like a great kit, excited to see the paint come together

Thanks for all the comments guys, it went together nice and easy. Got a bit more work done today!
I primed it with AK grey primer then used Hannants xtracrylix Dunkelgelb which does give it a lovely finish.

I'm very tempted to keep it one colour or use olivgrun

Posted: **Tue Aug 19, 2014 12:11 am**

Looking great...that's a nice color

Posted: **Tue Aug 19, 2014 6:18 pm**

On goes the Olivgrun. The jury is still out on it tho??

I do think I need to work on my air brush technique! I took so long doing the pattern my needle was drying up and causing me problems.

I tend to put all extras on my armour then paint it in situ. Don't know why but that's my way.

Fire the jury Nige, that's spot on bud.

Posted: **Wed Aug 20, 2014 12:53 pm**

Cheers Mike, your so kind

Sorry about the slow progress on this guys.
Anyway done some chipping on this.

Think I got a bit to carried away with the rear?? The infantry will be mounted on the engine deck and wanted some heavy chipping but I think I went to extream.

Posted: **Tue Aug 26, 2014 7:06 pm**

Looking good mate, I like the olive turn too. You got me itching to build one of my panzer III now lol

Posted: **Tue Aug 26, 2014 7:29 pm**

This is looking great at the moment, like the chipping you have created.

Posted: **Tue Aug 26, 2014 10:48 pm**

Very nice - extra work with camo&chipping

I look forward to more with interest

Those figures may need some cleaning up but tamiya figures are always fun and rewarding to paint

Posted: **Tue Sep 09, 2014 7:51 am**

Pretty much finished this tank now! Only a bit of weathering to do tonight. Then onto the figures

Posted: **Tue Sep 09, 2014 10:12 am**

Great work mate, looking good

Posted: **Tue Sep 09, 2014 5:47 pm**

Really impressive work.

Posted: **Thu Sep 11, 2014 8:09 am**

That's the weathering now done! I wanted to give it a light going over.

Posted: **Thu Sep 11, 2014 9:14 am**

That looks excellent Nige! Love the rust effects on the rivets. Nice dirt effects too.

Posted: **Thu Sep 11, 2014 9:16 am**

Great finish , So beauty !

Wunderbar arbeit

Posted: **Mon Sep 29, 2014 10:47 am**

Well I've done the most of the painting now! Just the face and hands, wash and weathering then the job is done. I have to say it as taking me a while so I'm sorry for the delay. I don't model every day.

Posted: **Mon Sep 29, 2014 11:30 am**

Nice work mate, your figures are getting better and better. What type of wash are you going to give them?

Posted: **Mon Sep 29, 2014 11:37 am**

Those are well painted Nige. Great colour choices.

Posted: **Mon Sep 29, 2014 11:56 am**

Tank looks excellent mate.

The figures are coming on nicely as well, good work.

Posted: **Mon Sep 29, 2014 1:01 pm**

those figures look great ...nice job

Posted: **Mon Sep 29, 2014 1:15 pm**

Great job on both the Tank and the figures mate...looks fab!:)

Posted: **Mon Sep 29, 2014 4:12 pm**

Cheers for all the comments guys

I'm going to use the Vallejo serpia Paul.

The colours I used Mike was model color 102 German field grey and then I used highlight flesh for different shades mate.

Posted: **Mon Sep 29, 2014 5:15 pm**
