The first studio shooting is over. The assignee crew is on the run (Dario will sooner or later have pity on us) and therefore the surveillance officer has posted some photos, but he is not up to it:

With more favorable temperatures will follow video ... It is always a dynamic

The Pequod left the "Patrie Officine" on Wednesday and the mood among the workers is really low. The absence of him stands out. It is a powerful vacuum. Work begins on the new project but, at the moment, the charm of the Imai is still far away.

Happy holidays to all!

I took the Pequod home and took some interesting shots with figures:

These figures are not his crew but belong to Tiger I.

For the Pequod I am on the waiting list but the teacher is meticulous and fast like Penelope ..... I have to be patient

Wow! "Pequod" appears to have seen a lot of tough action. What excellent work you have accomplished!

The months have passed and time is the friend of those who know how to wait. Here is the crew of the Pequod taking possession of their panzer:

I made the crew a promise: to take it outdoors, where the Pequod deserves to be photographed.

Hopefully soon.........

I see that the crew has changed from the August photos: these two seem much more relaxed and indulging in vices, one smoking and the other drinking. :haha: Perhaps they can soon get outdoors for photographs, as the weather near you is much better than here in Wisconsin, US.

Just Magnificent :clap: :clap: :clap:
Easily one of the best ever models I've seen.
If/when I get around to doing my Ferdinand, if it comes out half as good as this I could die a happy man :thumbup:

Thank you both. The first crew was to take test photos, but they weren't for the Pequod: the Waffen didn't have Elefants. That group is for Tiger I and they are not complete yet.

These two instead are his men, they were made on the basis of the real crew that was on the panzer located in Cisterna (Latina, Italy) in the first months of 1944.

The final details on the vehicle have been added, the crew has its accessories.

I would say project completed (with great satisfaction I would add).
