It is done, the base is made of foam and the grass is made of a fabric that I found at my local fabric store. Then I dyed the grass with paint. The crew is from dragon and the tank is from Tamiya.

Looks good, Robert
May I suggest a frame around the base? The fabric is visible on the first picture around the edge of the base.
The Panzer with its crew looks outstanding.
Cheers

Nice looking Panzer you have there! Very realistic dustwork on the rear.

I love the tank sitting in the middle of the tall grass. I can't see to well but it looks like there may be tread tracks in the grass behind the tank. Good job

Great job on the grass! Any plans on placing more figures on it?

Great work on your Pz Kpfw IV Ausf H. Camo scheme and weathering are done very well. Crew looks good too !
That grass looks ver convincing, and you did a great job on the coloring for it.
My only suggestion is for some bare metal on the tracks where it comes in contact with the ground. Other then that, you have done a fine job
Cheers !!

THat is a beautiful tank. I like the subtle weathering and the crew.
A few suggestions and I think this is for a future build rather than this one.
1) Next time, it's best to replace the side skirt armor with ones scratchbuilt from styrene or aluminum sheets. The ones on the kit are overly thick.
2) Weather the decals a little bit. They look brand new in contrast to the tank.
But don't let those interfere. Your P4 is very good.
