Excellent job! It's really hard to tell that this is 1/72! I really like how you did the weathering, specifically the chipped paint on the sides and corners/edges.

Witam, model pierwsza klasa. Tylko pogratulować. Modele na twojej stronie w skali 1/72 i 1/35 są godne polecenia i bardzo realistyczne. Zastanawiam się nad kupnem jakiegoś modelu z ICM, co o nich sądzisz?

Hi, first class model. Only congratulate. Models on your side of the scale 1 / 72 and 1 / 35 are highly recommendable and very realistic. I consider the purchase of a model of the ICM, what you think?

That's a lovely model.
Very subtle camouflage and nice weeathering.
Is the turret grille PE provided by the kit?

Thanks!
I like models from ICM - I think that it is good chose -especially Krupp or series Sdkfz 222-261.
Yes - "turret" grille it PE parts from this kit.

Georgeous looking 261 Jarek, especially the weathering and chipping. It really does look like a larger scale model. Fantastyczny model my Friend!

Hi Gulumik

thats a very nicely finished model, I like the subtle 3 colour paint scheme you used, it looks very effective, and nicely worn

cheers

I have done the SdKfz260 by ICM and I must say I am impressed by your result. It looks fabulous (and far better than mine) !
I had some trouble with the mesh. Did you ?

Cheers

Hi!

Nice one. I like especially weathered colours. Wash appears to be too dark but it is a question of taste. Generally: exellent work!

Cheers

You're right.
I had small problem with PE the mesh.

Hi
Really love the way you've painted that vehicle. The weathering is fantastic, looks 1/35!
P.S.
What colours did you use for the camo?
Thanks
