@ rolling-thunder:
I like 'm too, and I also have an Early Version-A, ready to be build.
That Early one, gets a metal lower hull, metal tracks, wheels and so on.

Is it just me, or do other's find that red/brown primer attractive? Must be pretty close to the primer that Henschel used on it's King Tiger's? I've always liked it when a bit of the primer showed through the weathered final paint scheme.

Cheers,
Eric.

In the meanwhile I put the vehicle into some color.
Dunkel Gelb from Army Painter.
I must admit, in real the assault gun looks quite different then the pics show.'
Color is more sandy than in the pics, I like the way it looks right now.
Ít is just a beginning, so relax.
Wil ad some camo patterns when my hobby room in the basement is ready...one day...
For now, you just have to deal with what i can show you.... :S

Put in some crew members.....
You might notice the difference in shade of color of the vehicle.
It must be the cell phone f*cking up the colors

Finally I marked the spots where the zimmerit has come off, with Tamiya Hull Red.
To be honnest, I am a bit disappointed about this particular Hull Red.
Expected it to be slightly reddish, it looks like red brown instead.

As said before, now I have to wait till my hobby room is ready, so I can start trying out my air brush to complete this tiny little plastic fellow.
Be patient guys....might take a while...too much to do besides my tanking stuff.
Cheers, Rob.
