Super figure work Spud, nothing like bespoke figures to make a great dio.
What plans do you have for the paintwork?

Spud, your vehicle is coming along very good. I like the blanket you’ve added over the main guns opening, this really goes a long ways in conveying the idea of the frosty conditions that the crews and soldiers on both sides must have had to deal with on the Eastern Front during that time period.
Excellent figure sculpting! Good idea with giving this icebox on tracks a home, the damaged building is just the ticket and captures the nature of that beast’s specialty. I like your combination of the groundwork and figures which provide both a sense of scale and action to your effort on this project. Keep it rolling.
Thank you so much for the information on the Fruilmodel metal tracks that you are using, it is very much appreciated. I’ve managed a copy of this vehicle thru Dragon USA online for $35 just last week, and have it in my hands now. I noticed that the sale is now over and the kit is back to the normal high selling price. I have a set of the ALT – 4’s on the way; these are a direct match to the kits supplied magic tracks and will work better for me as I plan on depicting the vehicle during the early fall season. However your big-foot version is quite appealing.

Hey Eddy thanks for all the Kind words, $35 is about what this kit is Wort, Dragon over supplying us with parts count that is not used on this kit is a Joke, Steve this will be a Winter Scene so w/w on the tank
