If you ask me Eric, I can't even imagine anything that has been forgotten

.
This is the most storming piece modelficationing that I have seen for ages

I'm looking forward to the painting of this masterpiece, but then again, it might be a shame to colour all that work in

With this much work underneath, almost don't want to see it painted. Really superb!

Thank You All Gentleman!!

I do agree it will be hard to paint this one up but as it's part of a group display for the AMPS Nats next year I'm afraid it will have to be done. Just hope I can pull it off without blowing it.

This is some massive detailed build, really incredible...
those smoke grenade launchers are beuatiful, that legend detailing set sure is nice..

Just a question: why did you allready mask the German crosses before all the painting?

After a bit of a hiatus I got into paint process. Started off with the primer and mottling, then continued with laying down the base colors. Overall I’m satisfied with the results. I’ll be doing some touch up here and there then move on to hitting the details such as the tracks, roadwheels, camo netting and such. And as usual all color is Mission Model Paints.

Thanks for Stopping By!!
