Hi,
This is my second thread on the site, anyway I just took some in-progress pictures of my 251 and Grille, time to start painting, Here's the URL:
http://www.villagephotos.com/pubbrowse.asp?selected=190131
The 251/9 is the Tamiya kit with Eduard/Royal photo-etch, and linkmodelworkshop tracks along with a bunch of other small things...
The Grille is my latest model, it's based on the ALAN kit, it has Tamiya roadwheels and suspension, Eduard basic photo-etch and fenders, TMD interior details and Sig 33, ABER tools, Friul tracks, the superstructure was scratch built and I replaced all the rivets with Grandt Line items...
Anyway, Critism welcome, go easy though I'm 15 #:-)
-Steve

thanks for making the URL usable, the painted 251 is from an earlier project I did about 2 years ago, I just included a picture for comparison against the 251/9, neither will be in dioramas, sorry...

Love the vehicles, nice clean build. As faust says the camo looks great on the 251. Do you spray the green or brown first? Does this matter?

I have become more and more interested in building the German halftracks lately and you 251 is a welcome surprise. I am really into accuracy and detail and it seems that you have done a fair bit to attain these goals.
Great looking kits,
Andrew
