Looks wonderful, not much to pick at other than you may have gone a little too heavy with your airbrush on some parts of the camo
other than that its a great looking Hummel

cheers karl

Nice Hummel you have there, but I have to agree with Karl about the ocassional heaviness of the airbrushing. Also the tow cable on top of the co-drivers hatch, if you can I would move that.
But those figures sure look good.

Cheers

That is a really nice build, I would agree with moving the tow rope, but those figures look absolutely excellemt.

I am usually use humbrol's enamels.
Orderly;
For base = matt 29 Dark earth
For pattern = matt 105 %70+ matt 33 | matt 118 %70+ matt white*
For dots = Pattern colors and matt 63, pale green*, matt 29, matt 105.
* I dont remember that colors numbers.
