Build and paintjob look great. Looking at the decals it's easy to see why crews started to paint those big white stars-they made terrific aiming points for Pak gunners

Now that looks spot on to me, I was surprised how small the 1/48th stuff was but you've mastered it

Why worry, each of us is wearing an unlicensed nuclear accelerator on his back.

Thanks for tha kind words fellas. Hey Gary, clean work! What airbrush do you use? Alexander, I use 2 AB's. My work horse AB is The Iwata Eclipse HP-CS. I love this airbrush! Theres nothing it cant do. My second AB is an Iwata High Performance B-plus. I use it for soft edge camo and for preshadeing like on this project. It to is an outstanding AB. Both are my PRRREEECCCIIIOOOUUUSSSES!!! ;D ;D By bbd468 at 2012-07-06 Gary

Heading into the final stages on this one Gary...have to keep reminding myself that it's 1/48 and not 1/35...you've got a nice depth to the finish that really shows off the detail.

Thanks again gentlemen! You guys are very kind. I have applied 3 filters of raw umber and i think ill cal it good. Ill let that dry for ahwile and deal it with a light coat of flat then oils. And there is a little teaser of the "UHU" in tha back ground. I got it from my nephew after delivering the Stuh 42 back to him. I build him a kit for his collection once or twice a year. I let him pick the kit. Ill post some good pics of the AFV Club UHU in a day or two. Anyways heres the M4 as it is right now. By bbd468 at 2012-07-06 By bbd468 at 2012-07-06 Thanks for having a look fellas. Gary
