Nice kit Nathan !
Gary, Jeff must be happy then those little bugers work well and don't complain as long as there's beer envolved ..
I have too many things on the bench to tackle a 2nd Marder right now but we still have a long way until the deadline
Take care !

I have a few Marders that I could chose from but I was in my Local LHS today and saw this:
It had arrived courtesy of someone's stash reduction and looks as if it had spent a couple of decades there -it even has the old spelling of ITAELEREI.
It was only €10 So I have decided to help it achieve it's destiny as a built kit

Gary,
You're a brave one; waiting to put the tracks on after the rest of the vehicle has already been assembled. I built the Sig 33/2, same chassis, and put the tracks on after the hull was completed and before the fenders went on so I could get the tracks assembled, sagged and glued without the fenders hindering any of the action.
Keep up the good work.
Kevin

Gary,
Well done! The tracks and wheel assembly looks good;. They should be much easier to paint than trying it on the vehicle.

Hey Kevin, Thanks buddy, it wasnt as easy as it may look but it paid off to be able to detatch to paint and weather.
Primer and base coat applied. Giraffe spot camo next. I gotta practice more on the pattern before i go ahead on the marder. Its gonna be harder to do than i originally thought.
Wish me luck on the camo guys!

Luck on the camo Gary...although you really don't need it
She's lookin' real sweet, one of my favorite 38(t) variants. Looking forward to seeing more paint on.

Gary: I will not wish you luck on the camo. You are far too talented to rely on that silliness, unlike the rest of us... 
OK then, Good Luck! Can't wait to see it.
