Here is my Memorial Day weekend project. It was built while waiting for glue to set and painted while I waited for putty to dry. Weathering was done just to get it of the bench. Hope you like it. Any comments are welcome. stug
ENJOY

SteveStug,
Done touch on the kit. Is it from DML?
By the way, real good painting skills.

OK, Del the turret is from a Panzer III and the gun is a 75mm. Sushi the kit is a Gunze Sangyo original. I havn't seen the DML retool and boxing in years. But it was still a nice building kit.the only thing i think i would like to see added to the kit is at least a partial interior as it has lots of room to fill the inside. thanks for the comments guys. stug

That's pretty cool. Did the tracks come with the kit?

I know I get to see this thing everyday but I have to say it looks better now that he's silvered the tracks... I must have pitched a few fits about how fast he did it! lol (++)

Stug - nice job! The PS looks really good. I like it. Once again you have proven your armor building abilities.
My other cent - In my opinion the tracks look to red. The track tied/connectors under the PS could use a touch of 'silvering'. The overall color may be just because of the photo.

That PS came out really nice I like it, Good (fast) job that`s for sure.. Fromm what I can see from the pics though you seem to have drybrushed all the sides of your rails but I travel for 4 years now by train and when a track lays there for a long time and there is continuous traffic over it then the whole beam would be rusted except for the upper part where the wheels make contact with it but that is just a detail... Really a superb model dude congrats
