Hello !
I just finished this vehicule. Italeri, 1/35.
Absolutely wonderfull and rather cheap kit, painted in acrylics with heavy weathering (inks/oils washes).
Original markings for the 2nd Polish Corps, Italy, 1944.
Cheers,

Nuno-- great job. The weathering is very well done.

Hi Nuno. Very nice job on the camo and weathering. Will you be adding a figure in the open turret hatch?

Nice job....I like the weathering part.....

The paint job and weathering look really good.

The only problem I can see are the drop tanks. The configuration provided in the kit, i.e. a bare metal barrel, was almost never seen in the field. I say "almost never" only to cover my *ss as I have never actually seen a photo of a bare fuel tank. All the photos show the tank covered in what appears to be a rubber bladder with sling type handles on either side. The filler cap & drain fittings protrude out of the bladder, which fits quite closely to the underlying tank.

I know the bare tanks are provided in the kit and that Bronco has provided the same things in their kit, but they still aren't representative of the real thing. It's rather surprising that none of the AM companies have provided replacements. They'd also be good for the Academy M3 Stuart which has the same problem.

Hi Nuno,

Nice work on the Staghound.
