Ruffis,
Thanks for running the campaign and for the ribbon. I learned a lot about the Pz IV. Also have a few more left in the stash so I'm ready for Workhorse II

@ruffus – Thanks for the ribbon and especially the memories! I really enjoyed this campaign and everyone that participated. These campaigns are so terribly addictive.

@squidgy – The Cyber-Hobby kit that I mentioned on an earlier post turns out to be the Ausf. B. I did however find a current step by step build log using the Coree Production kit that ‘eMan mentions in his post. Someone is doing a really detailed job of it here. There is a good description of the Panzer IV Ausf. A, resin kit and a link to where you can get the kit provided on the 1st page of the build log.

Thanks again and enjoy!

[quote] ......................@rtvmodeler – I do hope that your doing well. Please post pictures of your model when you get the chance I would like to see how you’ve come along on your build when you’re finished. I currently have an ongoing build log in the WWII section that I had started during this campaign for my original entree and would really like to see you post your finished build photos there. I will restart my build log again soon and it would be wonderful to see your Panzer IV there too. Hoping to see your super detailed build there, OK! Until then take good care of yourself.

Thanks friend. Excellent work you have done!. Conratulations to all! If not problem I will add pics to the final step.

I am better. I re-started my project and I am working with the PE, but before here some pics in detail with the interiors and connections. Weathering with Vallejo and Tamiya paints (Acrylics) and pigments.

















I am finish the PE in exteriors, soon more pics!

Regards,
Rodolfo

Hello friends!

Rodolfo,

I am so happy to hear that you are doing much better. Thank you for posting your build as it currently stands to date. This is the first time that I have seen anyone do a complete hull fighting compartment, engine bay with engine, transmission, brakes, radios with associated wiring and turret interior with its main gun and crew stations on a Panzer IV. It looks very busy and complex yet somewhat comfortable to me. The exterior looks excellent too!

Although you are still a ways from finishing with your build you have done a magnificent job thus-far. You are a very talented modeler and you should feel very proud of the work that you have put into your build. I appreciate the time that you have taken to post some in process build photos for all of us to see even though the campaign is now over. This only goes to show that the fun keeps going on!

Looking foreword to seeing more of your build here. Please take good care of yourself.

-Eddy

Eventually old campaign threads get locked so it would probably be better to make a build log or thread in the main AFV/Armor forum or possibly make it into a feature.

Your work is definitely something to show to others!!

Silly question, but how do we get our ribbons? And I concur with everyone here... what a great campaign! The work borders most times on art and only makes me want to ramp up my modelling a few notches next 'round. Congrats to everyone!

I totally agree, he so deserves it, as he has shown us what is possible with a model. It has been a real inspiration, and I would like to see the final stages, go Rodolfo.

All the best,
