I like the crusties on the lower hull behind the suspension. I have tried that with AK and Vallejo "mud" of various sorts, but it smooths out and takes a millennium to dry.

Howja doit?

Show off a bit? Well she really caught my eye. Subtle, but very alluring. Nice work.

Nice track droop--not too much, not too little, just like a PZIII. Kursk dusty, too!

About those turret hatches, you can get metal ones which can be open/closed.
But, you also could take an entire Panzer IV turret body, their hatches can be opened.
Turrets P3 and P4 are the same.
That‘s what I am going to do on my Panzer III project.
