Hi everybody! As I said in an earlier post I would be showing progress on the Sdkfz.250/3 amd the Kettenkrad. The Kettenkrad is coming together nicely(havent started the tracks yet) And the halftrack is about 90%done with the weathering, This dio is of a german convoy passing thru a village on the eastern front so the look I am going for is real dusty. What do you think did I go overboard? Let me here your thought and opinions. Cheers Kevin

Kevin looking very good I don't think you went overboard. I specially like the weathering on the tracks, tyres and roadwheels very realistic.

Very nice work with the 250/3. The coming Kettenkrad looks to be a fine work, too. I don't think you went outboard. Congrats. Keep on working

Thank you for the comments guys. I have done pin point washes on parts of the 250/3 and its stowage. Except for the figures and a little rusting I think it is done and ready to go on the dio. Costas, the "little one" has been a very smooth build so far. I have been working on the figures and have put off the tracks just a bit so when I am ready to do them I have nothing else on the workbench so to speak. Again thanks for the comments and I will keep posting as thing progress. Cheers Kevin
