Small update:



Gun shield panels.

Gary it's these sponges I use, I cut them in several sizes to have a different pattern and to work on different areas of the kit, I sometimes add a copper wire or toothpick so I can acess interiors or small areas.

Another small update

Small update ... again.

Tracks, gun plates.
Some small hatches just fell into the interior of the tank..

There's always something .. well...

I added some dust / sand to the wheels, tracks , armour plates.
Some streaking on some plates, not much.
Still want to add a tarp and some personal gear

Hey John, I think it looks great my friend! RUH-ROW....you dropped a hatch inside? Break out tha plastic saw!!!

Small update, but time consuming progress....
I really have great references courtesy of Bob Wiber. But some of it im gonna have to guess at and hope it looks like i knew what i was doin' the whole time.

More tomorrow.

Gary

John: looks great! Too bad about the hatch. Probably too difficult to cut a hole in the bottom without busting something else. Maybe scratch it back?

Gary: your radios are awesome!

Happy Modeling, -Zon

Thanks a bunch Zon!

More progress on the radios. Im gonna try and scratch up a speaker next and then ill scratch up the head set and throat mic later on. Gonna start the tools or maybe the gun soon.

Thanks fellas.

Gary

Gary,

Looks busy enough.... Will be interested in how you make the headphones, etc. as I might have to make some for my Marder. Am wondering where they would have stuck the morse key when they weren't using it....

Should be interesting to paint also...

Bob

OVER the top Mr Boggs, always over the top with your work.


Nice.

Great work Gary !
That food poisoning bug didn't worked out for the elf's, Mr.Boggs work is still 5 star's quality

Thanks a bunch you guys!

Ya know...ive slowed alot since the elves are away...but im happy with my work. Maybe i should just fire-em and do it all myself...naw...ill keep-em.

Gary

At least keep them around to clean up for the Landlord!

Again, nice work!










~ Jeff

Hey Jeff, I keep-em...their on latrine duty!

I have an update fellas. I base coated then upper interior and breech area of the gun. The gun was a BEEEEOTCH to put together...parts fit was awful and the usuall vague instructions didnt help. Anyways, ill paint the radios and other interior details next.


Thanks for lookin fellas...more soon.

Gary

Gary: Super nice. I bow to your mastery.

Happy Modeling, -zon

Hey brother Mace! Very nice indeed, I like the scratched speaker and your sweet cables. As soon as I get in the new place I`ll send you some pics of my new man cave...Gonna be awesome!!!!

Final shots, some more weathering and added some camo nets too.

SWEET work John! I love it!










~ Jeff

Thanks Jeff !! I posted one photo on the Campaign Gallery too.
It was a really fun build !
I still have a lot of work on my Workbench but I'll keep coming here to see other Marder's progress !!

Hey John, Great build brother! Love the chipping and the added netting looks right at home. Well done sir!

I have completed paint and detail on the radios. Just need to finish the mask canister and then ill detail paint the other side and the gun detail.

More tomorrow!

Gary

No surprises here Gary. Very nice.










~ Jeff

Some very nice WIPs guys. Gary your fighting room is looking fantastic.

Gary,

Very nice looking paint on the radios.... I have base coated mine and have the dark grey on the various electrical boxes. The radios come next and then I get to rig them. Am definitely using yours as a guide...

Bob

Great work Gary !
I see another masterpiece from Gary & Stoned Elf's !

Thanks for the kind words !

He did it again Gary your work is mighty fine bro!!!
Phil.

Hey fellas,

Thanks a bunch for the kind words my friends.

Im still slowly chippin' away at this rascal! Ive Future coated what you see and im going to apply washes and ill seal it up with flat clear when dry.


Hopefully ill be able to start piecing it all together soon. Alot tougher kit than i though it would be!

Gary

Keep this up Gary! A very clean and crisp build yet. Just a thing, do you think you could have drilled the ammo rack a little to thin them? They seem rather thick...But you know it looks awesome the way it is also man! I love your work bro, can't wait to get back on the bench.

Phil.
