More done on the super P, replacement decals came from Peddinghaus (superb service), so I got cracking with the stowage. Finished the bed rolls and added decals to the ammo boxes. Weathered up and fitted to the tank. I've also made a start on the two crew figures.

Have to call him Spotswood, that's his serious face ;)

Bored looking or not, it really shows the quality of the figure and your painting technique to have such a natural looking face :thumbup:
