Great stuff bud.
Won't it be a pain in the A** to weather the upperrun of the tracks since they are already in place? Or will the skirts cover it up?
Cheers

Nope one of the things I love about this kit is the upper hull is kept in place with prolly caps so I can remove it for that part |

Nice choice on the camp scheme. Looking forward to the weathering for this one. Having the hull top be removable will make life easier for sure!

Absolutely love the hard edged paint on this one. Great work with the mud as well. Too bad much of the camo will be weathered and toned down. I really like it in the bright tones.

Ive been hard at work for the last few days with this one. I ended up with more W/W on teh sides than i originally wanted but im happy enough with it, Ive also added some storage on the back and a rolled up Roof cover. Also Keen eyed views will notice the map in the under commanders hand again just for some interest. I ordered 2 more figures today so the Tank commander and passenger may change,    |

Good work with the faded white. But I liked your bright colors well enough that I might just need to build a similar "factory fresh" panzer just for the fun of the bright colors.

Of all the elements in the scene, I'm actually most impressed with the mud. It has maintained its dark, wet look for days and days now. How did you do it?

Have to echo the others when it comes to that muddy base look. Really captured it nicely Spud.

Splendid! Loving the mud and snow effects! Totally impressed by the Schwimmie as well as the Jagdpanzer! Thumbs Up! And the figures are excellent too! I hate myself for saying this and I hope you don't mind, but I'm slightly less impressed by the bike - don't get me wrong, the finish is great but I never understood why Tamiya didn't bother to include the exhaust down-pipes, and some other bits.
