Looks awesome! I love the weathering effects you used and how they turned out! The wash around the rivets look really cool as well and give the model some depth.

What scale is this in?

Great paint and weathering on this model. Totally out of box build? 2017 release? I didn't hear about this. New tooling or the same kit from the 70's?

I'd be afraid to weather that well. My wife would try to dust it. . . . Great job!

Great work & perfectly faded camo, I haven’t seen much better than this. Could I suggest what should be an easy further improvement? The white-ish weathering wash has collected around hatch-covers, panel joints etc which makes it look a bit like a hard frost. Unless that was the intention, a very fine brush delivering a blackish or dark brownish wash directly onto those white lines could work wonders. If it was mine I’d actually give the whole vehicle a series of very dilute dark washes (observing the bone-dry effect before doing another & knowing when to stop), it’ll tend to collect in just the right places. If interested I'd experiment on the wheels/lower hull first, where mistakes better look totally intentional!

. Yes this is a new kit as it represents a Late Stupa AKA Brummbar and uses lower hull parts from Tamiya's very nice and newer Panzer IV kits. This is a very nice model from Tamiya and I have one in the stash waiting to be built. The only other kit of this late Stupa AKA Brummbar I know about is the Dragon kit which came out sometime back. nice job on the model and camp and weathering one comment the first four wheels were steel and you might want to consider painting the part that meets the track steel as pain would have worn off quite quick only thing I really noticed.
