I really like StuG's with winterketten tracks, will be following, I used to use Lifecolor a lot they are good, main problem is there is always a paint bubble when you take the caps off, drove me nuts

Very nice build. This one is on my to-do list. Love the Evolution figure. Did you bother painting the interior?
Nice work with the fenders. Will this have a whitewash?
