Finished, as I posted in my Campaign Journal, I tried to be real subtle with the washing and drybrushing. I don't think it came through on the pictures. The only things added were AFV club tracks and wire mesh on the turrett basket. Some pictures are here.

Ron, she looks pretty darn sharp. Very clean build.
Are you going to weather the tracks any more?

Nice work. I'm finishing up AFV tracks for my two CWCO. Bit on the tedious for crean up, but they sure are great!

Gentlemen,
Thank you for your kind comments. As I said, the weathering really doesn't photgraph well. I think I'll heavy it up a bit and post some new pictures.
Steve, the AFV Club tracks are great, look good, stay together, easy to build and inexpensive. These tracks were only $15.00.
Now on to the Barbarossa build.
