Thank you.

Nearly finished

 

[Rob]

Great job. That is a cool setup I bet that was fun to build?

 

[BarleyBop]

Great job

Yup, and it just kept getting better as you went along. Gotta go over the pics to understand how you did that.

This time i did not use any washes except on the cushions. Mainly I just used pigment powders.
I sprayed German armor brown for the base coat then a chipping fluid then Panzer Grey.

chipping fluid

Black art, that.
Maybe I should try again, first and only was like on my 3rd or 4th model after coming back to the hobby.
Yours looks great!

Ah yes, the mechanic's pit, icy road or commando under the metal bridge view!
Nice!

So far very blingy. They will be toned down tonight.

I always had a hard time getting the details of German uniforms in 1/35 to look good.......
I think you're off to a good start.

So... Gary, look at this detail: (click above to expand)

Look at the wheel.
Look at the the fender.
Like, really examine them.
Could it be done any better? I doubt it.
We all have different opinions, but seriously, if I were you, I'd be thinking: "How can I ever top that!"
You nailed it.

Crack open a cold one, sit yourself down, and take the time to admire some mighty fine model work.

Have to agree with Barley, outstanding job on the weathering. Pantherman

Thanks, brother!
This is the first time to use pigment from Vallejo.
So far, this has been a really fun build.

Thanks, PM. You gave me the idea from your build.
