Nice, but I'm always puzzled about the extended rear end on the side skirts. Looks better without as they are only there to stop your fingers being mauled.

Very nice Justtanked. I guess you are getting ready to put your "baby" to bed ?

Good Morning,
That is a beautifully done tank. Looking at it closely, I just realized that the Bundeswehr were putting MG-42s ( or some variant of them ) on that tank back in the day. Very nice detailing.
regards,
Painless

Yes everything is original and stock. Even runs on the old battery. Well if I ever had time to run it. Thanks for the posts.
