Very nice. Not overdone, quite understated in a very positive way.

Thank you all for the kind comments. The pictures of the finished model is courtesy of Rick Lawler. We had a group build planned, and Rick' s part was the diorama, hence I shipped the JdPz to Rick in the states. The JdPz took quite a beating during the trip, you see some paint peeled of on the manlet. The group build was never finished, but Rick was so kind to take some nice pics. The paint is lifecolor for the yellow, and the green is a mixture of vallejo cam. Light green and panzer olive green 5:1, and the brown is vallejo cam brown.

Great work Erik. The dry mud effect is really looking good.

AFV model making perfection and as others have commented, VERY nicely restrained weathering and wear & tear; unlike some we see where they exhibit "weathering" one would not see on the real thing even were they stood idle in a field for 30 years!

Fabulous model and overall finish / presentaion.

Thank you for the kind words Gary, the weathering was not truly intended as a subtle finish, but at some point I just grew tired of the model, and called it a day.

Very nicely done Holmerz. The weathering and scratching are great looking. I do like the looks of the Fruil tracks and how they sag so well. I have this kit on my shelf and now I want to build it after looking at yours. Chris
