Hey All,
My latest completion.

, , Jagdpanzer 38(t)
Royal Model Figures

Pretty much OOB build with modifying fender and skirting parts to show damage. Thin wire used for the hull detail.

This was a fun, “quick” build and will definitely not be my last Tamiya 1/48 vehicle kit.

As always...in this crazy world “KEEP IT FUN”

    Very nice diorama and amazing paintwork on the soldiers.

    A good looking build of a sweet little kit. Your settings really help bring it to life, and the figures help show off just how small of a vehicle it was.

  5. Great looking build/dio!, it tells a story. " I said go left at the bombed-out farmhouse! "

  6. Gary, @gwskat
    Nice ! This looks very realistic and lifelike. I have a hard time painting figures, but this is a skill you have mastered. The camouflage also looks great. What are you using for an air brush ?

    I also clicked the "like" button. 🙂

  7. That's an excellent diorama. I like it a lot.

  8. Sweet little vignette.

  9. Excellent work Gary!, looks as 1/35 Dio.

  10. A very nice looking Diorama. Just big enough. Congratulations and please keep sharing.
