I still have a few more small things to add but it's about 99% finished!

That's looking very nice. Do you intend on adding any chipping to the lower front end? Please post more photos, as I find this an interesting kit. Considered buying one on a few occassions, but just couldn't find room for it in all of my German armor and artillery.

Oh yeah the front will be chipped up as well, I still need to do that and add the chain to the front.
Its a good little kit and a joy to build!

That looks like a very nice clean build; however, I don't think I would add any more chips; the ones I have inspected coming back from downrange in my experience have been dusty and have had some staining, but not much in the way of paint dings...the CARC paint seems to be pretty durable

I was looking at photos and saw one that was dinged up pretty good, but I'll be dang if I can't find it now, It almost looked as if it was repainted and the paint didn't take very well. I'm looking for it and if I find it I'll post it
