Nice looking Nashorn...how about some more info and updates you've done?
I'm not so sure about that allied stuff, you got my hopes up at first....I thought it was an "ersatz" panther. Keep 'em coming!

Hi Movile,
Thank you for the nice words, this is the old DML Nashorn with the Commander Resin upgrade, Eduard PEs, and a metal tube.
I did this because I don;t want to waste the old Nashorn kit, and it's fun to build. The periscope is from Tankworkshop.

Dave,
Looks like you've done a really good job with that CSM upgrade kit. She's looking really good. It will be interesting to see how she compares to the new Nashorn that you are going to build here in a couple fo months.

It looks good, the upgrades are nice. It looks like the upgrade was quite a major upgrade.

Dave:
Wow!
Looks like lots of PE detail on this one. You've got the knack for detailing, that's for sure. Like the rest of the Armorama group members, I'm looking forward to final pics once the Nashorn is done.
Keep it up.
ps: Don't let the Nashorn pick on that M10 you've just completed!

So.......you thought you would try to get yourself back into our good graces by posting what should have been your FIRST post! I will have to mark this in your permanent record. This has been the very limit of the DSB tolerance and color co-ordination!
Now that the seriousness is over, I will get to the point. Why does this look very close to the other Nashorn you posted? Are you posting pictures of the same model and trying to get us to believe it is another one? Do you think we will fall for this subdefuge?Did you think we wouldn't connect the two sets of pictures? Did you think that dress I was wearing last night made my butt look big? How is my hair? Am I getting fat?

Gee,I can't wait until the improved DML offering becomes available.I hope I can do as good as that on a stock kit.I think your use of Resin was a bold move.Kepp us up to date.

Nice work making a bad kit alot better ...You really are a tough man to be able to do this kit while you are already the owner of the new kit !!! I gave my kit to a someone else along with the commanders kit cause I know I'll never do it!! Really nice work so far ...Now painting an open top vehicle that's always lots of fun ...can't wait to see it finished..

Hi Dave ..... that Rhino is looking good. I really admire you for not wasting the kit, I didn't know you had the new one too ? I would have done the same. I can't see letting a good model go to waste. THE STEEL FLOOR PLATE in the fighting compartment really got my attention ........ is it PE ? Your doing a terrific job Dave ! ... It really is coming along nicely !
Are you planning on making it from any particular sPanzerjager Abteilung ?

Looks great Dave. I see what you mean by your "limited" workspace :-)
