Looked pretty neat to me, Brandenus. You might want to sag the tracks a bit by glue them to the road wheels with CA glues.
Good work so far.

Brandenus, you should write up an article to go with your pics. Fill us normal humans in on how you make your stuff look so good. I especially like the pics of your workshop (haha), its alot like mine.

From what I can see (the pics are a little fuzzy for me) you did a good job on the interior and the exterior paintjob is also well done. The weathering on the wheels looks very nice (I love weathering 38(t) wheels too
). I noticed the same thing as Dave, though. You should glue the tracks down to the two return rollers on top and to the rearmost roadwheel. I have built this kit and the tracks hold fine with superglue.

Looking good man! The interior does look good.
I haven't built this beast yet, but I did pick up the Marder III M, and must say it is a brilliant little model. Mine "fell together" in two easy nights work and is now primed and getting ready to be painted. Hopefully I can post some pics in the next few days.
