Pz.Kpfw.III Ausf.L Late IPMS Build Review

[MaschinenKrueger]

Instead of my usual StuG IIIs, I decided to build something totally different, a Pz III. This was built and finished in 30 days (a record for me) for the IPMS review site.

The model was built OOB (except for the smoke launcher wires) I thinned the fenders and exhaust covers to better represent bent sheet metal and I tried to thin brackets and tool clasps were I could - or cared. Here are a few photos. I was going to experiment more with snow effects, but it now resides in a case at the LHS.

I'm not sure I'd say its "totally different"

Very impressive build, the weathering looks especially good.

I think is a very good model.

Very good build and very good winter paint and weathering.

It's a joke, Johnny. A joke. ;-)

Thanks for the kind words.

Thanks! It's a good kit. No real issues. Instructions can get you in a couple of places. Check the review for a blow by blow.
