Well done !
How did you like assembling those Friuls for this Porsche Jagd ? I used a set and thought the end result was worth the time put in assembling them .
The figure gives some nice drama to the scene.
I like !

i decided to "revise" this kitty after some shows i did with it and having some chats with fellow modelers how to improve this one. It is alway refreshing when someone else point you some details that i didn't see while working on it. First of all i made a groundwork for it just wont "pop out" anymore so i ordered a black base for it. The figure doesn't make any sense anymore so i am replacing this one for another figure. First of all i retouched some detailing by adding some smooth scratches  I spattered more "dry dirt" on the side  Pigments build op to create sand on tactical places on the reardeck.  Soon more touch up's  |

I like this very believable cam not to fussy and well weathered ie not over the top. The only thing I am not sold on is the Gun cleaning rods in red and white I know they bring colour and some vehicles have them but they are few and far between. but its personal taste ,but I do like the model....very much .

Thnx for the comments guys, Mac i was thinking of changing the rods, maybe one in wood color and one heavy chipped or just both in wood color. Glad you like it so far!

Nice that you are pushing it even further Elco, like the addition which you did. Is she going to be a contender at the SMC show this year?

Good one! Mac already pointed out the gun cleaning rods. I have to mention the wire cutter on the engine deck. The handles would look better in red brown or even darker. These were made from Bakelit, not wood.
Cheers,
Tobi
