I'm in as well. I built the 6431 version from Italeri quite a few years ago. Overall, a very nice kit, but I added a ton of AM to the build.

Todays doings consist of trackage and turretage . I'm now trying to work out the best way to do the weld beads, the hull shouldn't be too tricky, but the bead around the turret is another matter .

What a lovely clean build.
Battle of the Bulge was on today, every time I see one of these it reminds me of that film
