I started to build this model about year and half ago
It was very painful way to build it. Few times model landed in a box waiting for a better times..
Plastic is not good, lack of details, poor fitting.
Also I haven't got any idea how I would like to build it, what base, what weathering etc, etc.
But finally here it is. Watch and be gentle with your comments:

That's a very nice looking Pzh2000. I like the weathering and the base but what about the decals? I'm missing some of them.

The kit looks to be Revell's top-shelf. The painting and weathering is masterful. Although, I have to agree; what happened to the decals?

There are two options for decals:
-kit was without them;
-I lost them somewhere.
I'm not sure about the first one, so the second option is most possible.

You can always order replacements or you may be able to get a replacement set from Revell.

Yeah, this kit is a box of crap...But your painting and assembly are very nice!

Mine is ready except for the dust cover of the barrel.

Awesome looking PZH2000 very realistic weathering and cool looking mud

1 question tough: Why is the barrel clamp in raised position. I don't know about the German PZH but the Dutch PZH2000 won't be able to rotate its turret with the clamp in raised position...
