Any comments welcome !

Thanks Bob for the nice reply.
In the meanwhile the front and rightside recieved the basic weathering.
I started with the weathering of the schürtzen on the left.
The upperdeck is almost ready , but I haven't taken pictures yet. They will come ASAP
Till next time,
André

That looks really good. The weathering and effects are very subtle and very convincing. Nice job.

Great job, wathering looks very impressive;) I have a question about color you used to paint a first wheel, it's looks quite like "reddish brown"- what paint is it? (I mean - number and firm). I'm asking because I'm looking for this color....so maybe you can help me:) Greetings, Marcin

That is one of the best plain Dunkel Gelb jobs I ahve ever seen!
Construction is also immaculate, but the finish, marvelous.
Oow, and one thing.... it ain't a Hetzer...

Hi Andre,
It looks great. How do you do the paint pealing and chipping effect? I have tryed a couple ways, but none to my liking. Any help would be appreciated.
Again it looks great. Keep us updated.

John

Thx Frank,
You have it totally good, I am not the fastest
But that comes because I usually with differed models together build.

Hi All,
As again a small step shorter by the end result
A small bit of chips above on the covering and I think he is for a 70% finished
What yet to do:
- Piments
- Mud
- Tracks (so as usually, I have totally nothing done one the tracks)
and then he can stand nicely on a board
Any comments welcome !
Best regards
André

Hi Excellent job, really nice.
I just find the amount of chipping you put along the ridges of the mudguards a little distracting, my eye being drawn to them too much.
A little less along these areas would have balanced more with the overall look. Hope you don't mind me saying.
Other than that it's superb and a level of competence I dream of achieving one day.
Thanks for sharing.
