Hello,
I think the Tiger and Stug are my favorites and the jeeps. Keep it fun and it looks like you get more done. Congrats on your return to 1/48

I'm re-doing the M4. Not much on the tank itself, a little weathering perhaps, but I'm doing a different base for it.
It gives me something to do when I get frustrated with the HobbyBoss T34/85.

Thanks. I sometimes have more fun building the base than building the vehicle.( especially in the case of that #$@% T34/85!)

"As the war progressed, the shortage of resources was so critical that vehicles left for the front in the basic factory color and rarely received any other treatment."
Wehrmacht Panzer Divisions 1939-45, J. Rosado and C. Bishop
This one has some improvised camo of local flora.
I am taking a break from tracks for a while, this one drove me crazy! And just as I had the track on right, I dropped the chassis. On a hardwood floor. Right front sprocket first.
Took me half an hour to find the track pieces, 15 minutes to 'fix' the sprocket, and a lot of will power to keep from chuckin' the whole thing out the window.
So, I have the M20 lined up next. After that, I don't know. M8? Protze? Schwimmwagen?
Is the Kengi Staghound any good?

Tamiya M 20, WIP, I figured I'd post this while you can still easily see the interior.

Ta da!
M20 Armored Car, Itay 1944;
I used five of the pieces from the Black Dog M8 set on this. Great stuff!

Whoa! These pics suck! I'll get some new ones as soon as I figure out what went wrong.

Here we go;
Some of the decals look a bit silvered, but otherwise how does it look?

It's been a while, but here is my Flakvierling 38, nearly done and waiting for a base and crew.
