Thank ya Craig, but dont hold your breathe, I like to jump around alot. It's hard for me to stay interested in one thing for too long!

By the same token, I find I go months between builds (the proverbial modeling "funk"). I have to be in the right frame of mind to attack styrene and it just hasn't been there of late.

That is an amazing weathering job you've got going on there. I'm impressed!

You make a mediocre kit look great, I loved that kit when it came out, 40 years ago, but by today's standards, it's a dud, but you made it look amazing. What are you going to use for tracks? Most aftermarket tracks don't fit the old Tamiya, (I know, I built an old kit out of my stash last year).
I had to use Alan roadwheels and the unused tracks from the Wespe kit.

I m not an expert of this category ( armor) , but Ä° liked your weathering indeed. Excellent finish for my opinion.

Thanx guys! As for the tracks I'm not sure, I'm actually havin trouble finding one side. It's probably in one of the many boxes somewhere! Do you guys keep all the old boxes? I just cant seem to get rid of them!

Jeff, i really like the wear and weathering effects you are achieving on your models. The Panzer looks weather worn, and sun scorched. Great work!

Thank you Bob, To me plastic tanks just dont like right until you make them appear as if they've been through hell and back!
