Hi Roman
Excellent build! I especially like nice detail with the grass/straw in the suspension. Looks very realistic.

Thanks, Jacob!

Damaged roller, torn skirts and grass were done as per reference image of this particular assault gun.



I also did quite a number of adjustments to make it look as more accurate model

The figure that is on the title image is from The Bodi, slightly converted and painted by my friend Radek Pituch.

An excellent build of an unusual model!

thanks!

A Zrinyi II! Roman, thank you for this excellent model! Finally, something that is NOT a ho-hum Tiger or Panther or Sherman or T-34 (Oh my!) - an interesting subject! An interesting design with a low and forward fighting compartment that looks more menacing that a StuG or semoventi.

Hello Roman.
Awesome build! That's great you were able to reproduce the original in your model. Great details. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you, Frederick and Pawel.

Very cool armor and a great build, something to be proud of!!

Interesting subject, convincing built, modification, painting and weathering. I like it a lot. Thumps up!!
Looking forward for more from you.

Michael

Thanks a lot!

Roman, thumbs up. Everything about this models screams at you: Excellence!

You did an amazing job in every details. To you:

thanks!

Amazing job! It is really great to see a Hungarian subject after the tons of German ones in such top quality!

BTW, the Zrinyi 2 was the most successful hungarian built armoured vehicle in WW2. Even without powerful anti armour guns, using only the 105mm howitzer with excellence by a small elite group of storm-gunners, they played an important role fighting with the mass of superior Soviet armour.

I am glad you like it, Istvan. I also think this is a great subject and not that boring as "another Panzer III".
I did this model with close collaboration with friends from Hungary - Palinkas Zsolt and Adam Romsits. They helped with references and drawings that made it possible to correct the kit.

I like your model. Excelent details. Congratulations, Omar

Thanks, Omar!
