I stared this project in 2017 and it sat on the shelf of shame until a month ago when I finally dusted it off to finish.
I based the turret on this drawing...
but updated the design to have later type production features. The unique turret parts were designed in 3D CAD and printed by Panzer Concepts. The mine roller is the old MB models white metal and resin garage kit. It required more work than the whole rest of the model to clean up. Model is detailed with Royal Model PE and Resin set, Fruil tracks, Eureka tow cable, and an Evolution figure.

The work is exquisite. I really like the figure, one which deserves a tutorial by itself. The new parts look like they were part of the original kit. Are the additional parts available somewhere or a one-off? The weathering was spot on. I like the forethought about the damaged fender and the replaced roadwheel. Well done.

Sorry for the late response.
Greg Smith - Thank you. I appreciate it. The parts are a one off I designed in 2017 and it took me a while to finally finish the project.
KoSprueOne - thank you!
