Hi folks! I have just uploaded some pics of my just completed Panzer 3J finished in Afrika Korps colours. I would love to hear your comments / advice on it .
Here's just 1 of the pics - you can see the rest under my callsign floogen or under the COmpleted AFV category.
Thanks!
Alan

hi Alan,

i saw your work on track-link.net and it looks really good

over here at one of the LHS, there's a 40% discount on this DML pzIII ... are there any 'problems' with this kit? if not, i'll rush down and grab it !

I, too, saw this vehicle on another site and was very impressed with it. I love the subtle airbrush weathering and painting/finishing in general. Beautiful work!

The scarf on his mouth is a very nice touch.

Thanks for all the kind words

Danny, the kit is really good. There is a review of this kit on Track Link and it got very good marks. It has a LOT of parts, so you'll be spending many a happy hour building this one (let me guess..MH is having the 40% off right?)

That looks really nice. The road wheel rubber and the paint on the tank are all very realistic. Nice job on the track too. The color you used and the wear induced shine on it are great. It looks heavy too. Those guys are gonna have fun if they throw a track!
