Wow Rafal,
Excellent job with the PE! I can't wait to see this one painted and weathered.
Great job!

Hi Rafal
Once again you've created a true masterpiece. It's going to be superb when yuo're done painting it. One thing though, loose the panzerfaust, I don't think the timeframe for a Krupp Protze w. a PaK 37 and the use of panzerfausts are correct.

Very impressive construction, but the other poster is correct--the Panzerfaust 60 is a 1944 item, while the rest of the build is more suitable for 1939-41.

Lovely build and paint/weathering job Rafal. Its not one you see modelled much, but it looks so good when done well. Any plans for figures for this one?

Hey, this is one awesome build. I'm building this same kit at the moment and I have a question, "Could you give me the dimensions of the 'box' located between the 2 lockers on the right side?". The Lions Roar instructions leave a bit to be desired . Also "What did you use to replace the 'boards' running between the left and right side lockers?"

Cheers

It's looking really good and I look forward to seeing it finished.

I have wanted to build one of these ever since I saw one in an early issue of Tamiya Military magazine and this has inspired me even more.

Stunning build !

I have been thinking about using the Lion Roar Kits how do they measure up to the likes of Aber?
