Thanks Nathan;
I can feel that, wasn´t too keen on spending a quite long time in the cold basement for painting either.
I´ve gone this time more on contrast than on more color shades, not a bad decision I´d say. And faster aswell
Now with some more messing around with washes etc.:
Also note the nose down effect, which shows the two front torsion bars broken. This happened on the real Wittmann StuG and is shown in one of the pictures I´ve posted somewhere in the beginning.

Fabian, that StuG looks awesome. Really great job and inspiration to do an early version. Can't wait to see it finished.

I'm done, natural something went wrong just in the end,.. Trying to get a matt finish on my driver and infantry I apparently did it not do something correct,.. Must admit I used the stuff for the first time, and applied it not correctly,...
Anyway and nevermind I finished my build, and I must say I liked it!
The personel in primer
Finish with oil paint
And then the big mess,...
Anyway we go on,.
after a bit of dusting with some deluded Tamiya buff we add some pigments
and the final result
and with the ill fated driver
thanks
