Absolutely amazing Oberst! Is this scratchbuild, or a mix of PE and scratchbuild ? Looking very very good!
Wish i had the gift to build something as detailed as your panzer I.

Lord Obe,
Allow me to be the first to congratulate you on this fine effort. Nevertheless I don't think you can call it superdetailing, it's ULTRADETAILING!!!!
Knowing all the hard work you put into this kit, the result is very good, the painting is convincing. The scrathced radio frames are awesome.
So Obe didn;t mention it, but all the hatches are workable in this lil' baby.
Awesome Lord Obe.

My eyes hurt from looking at all of these fine details that you have put into this very confined space. Excellent workmanship.

Bravo Oberst!!! Excellent details. Wait to see the rest...
Just one question is it for the most part PE/Aftermarket or scratchbuilt?

The base interior kit is the Tristar one.
I scratchbuilt al of the missing detail with resin, plastic card and spare photoetch.
Thanks for the comments,
Andrew

Hey Rich
I washed the interior with a mixture of Black and burnt umber artistis oils from Windsor and Newton. They were thinned with Linseed Oil which Dave (SS-74) can attest took a long time (I was constantly complaining about them in the chat room). I also did a highlighting wash with a small amount of black thinned with turpentine on the white parts.
