I wanted to share my latest finished build,ClassyHobbys Sd.KFZ 123,Ausf. L Luchs of the 4th Panzerdivision in 1/16th scale. I added a aftermarket barrel for the 2cm cannon,the rest is out-of-box.Painted with Tamiya acrylics,weathering with Abt.502 oilpaints. I know it misses the hatch sightblocks on the turret,i just forgot to put them in before making the pictures

Very nice. I like the chipping/weathering. It's not over the top but still looks like it's been well used.
On the bench:
The Night Shift Campaign: GWH P-61 "The Last Shoot Down". 1/48
Spanish Civil War Campaign: Dragon Pz I Ausf B 1/35
Revell B-17 1/48 with lots of add ons.
Complete rehab and repaint of Dragon Pz III J. 1/35
Thanks for your comments.I appreciate that very much.I donīt really like the heavy mudding and totaly worn vehicles,so i mostly keep it low key with that.
@johhar: The fitting is...mostly good,at some point itīs a bit tricky (especially for the rear grates over the air intake vents) and the instructions have some issues (at least from my point of view).Detail overall is good,on some parts theyīre not so crisp.There is near to zero flash and only a few missaligned molding.The wooden crates have good texture and the decision to align these parts over rectangular pins,like the original ones,is a nice detail.

This is really well done! Agree with the others about your restraint on the chipping/weathering. All the pics are great, but I'd ask for 1 or 2 more showing the scale/size since there aren't a lot of 1/16 vehicles posted.
