nice looking monster.
I like the camo, is a good break from the OD.
Good work with the details you added.

Thanks for sharing,

That camo is looking fantastic! The weathering is also great, maybe a bit overdone, but nice.

great build youve allot of am products and scratch bulding

the yellow seems to stand out it may need to blend in abit more

cracking model the weathering looks spot on why dont you add some water marks where its been sitting in the water ay?

Lovely work Bernd.
No description is needed as the photos show the progression nicely!
Great work on the scratchbuilt details
Love the camouflage, and I have to disagree James; the yellow looks good to my eyes

Excellent job of both the build and the paint job. I have one that I'm just starting on and would love to know what you used for the plexiglass bubbles over the driver and assistant drivers' hatches.

Thanks and Happy New Year!
