Hello!
I would like to show you my last project, Geschutzwagen 39(H)
I used to build rather poor Trumpeters kit, with Hobby Boss track and minor additions. Model has been painted Tamiya acrylics.
Thanks for looking.
all comments welcome
best regards Krzysztof

Krysz;
VERY NICE! I think you have made the kit sing in about every way - the paint scheme is very cool, you did up the radio set quite nicely, the external detailing looks sharp, and the tracks worked out quite well, IMO! I really like the gentle mudding on the road gear and tracks, and the light weathering you've done around the hull. I'm no real fan of heavily-dinged vehicles nor of really heavy mud (save when in a dio or such where the "Russian road" is evident!)-
Great job!
The Bronco kit of this thing is on my stack - having built other Bronco Hotchkiss vehicles, I suspect that the tracks will be at least as good as those HB. Whether I'll capture the rest of the ambiance of this "Alfred Becker special" as well as you have remains to be seen!
Thanks! for posting this!

I agree with everyone else! very, very nice! In fact, the more I looked at it, the more I liked it.
It was hard to find anything to suggest improvement, but there is one thing that caught my eye. The radio is very nice, (great addition with the wires) but it looks very "new" compared to the rest of the kit. Perhaps a little weathering there would blend it into the rest of the interior.
Great work!
