Terry, things are moving and on the way. ;o) Today, I took a few hours and played with my toy soldiers. *chuckles* I took some likely candidates ( among them the bargain I found at the Flea Market ) and sat down to look at some photos and artwork of StuG B crewmen and their uniforms. A little mix and match later, I had a Summer uniform match crewman for the resin Commander and did a little paintwork. I stopped when I discovered that my dark gren was dried up. More work tomorrow. A few pictures of the fun:

Herman,
Thank you, my friend! It's been a challenging build. I've learned some things about resin that will help in the coming months. Stay tuned, final figure paint, markings and weathering are still to come.
regards,
Painless

Today was a quiet Sunday with weirdly nice October weather for CO. The markings had already arrived for the StuG so I went to work with a mind to finish it. Final details, markings comprising stencils and dry type and wet slide and paint and permanent ink along with Dull-Coat and a new painted plasti-chain. Lastly, one of the figures completed and flat sprayed. The StuG is done. All I need to do is finish the Commander and weather lightly. Pictures:

Good morning, Alpha,
The Commander needs paint and I need to weather the StuG. Otherwise, all done. I'll see to those, hopefully, this evening or tomorrow night. This tracked gun is quite the runner! ;o)
regards,
Painless

Three days of detailing and painting the new Commander. I'm happy with the results and that says something since I'm the guy who produced 'Crazy Joe'. Just weathering and a Show-Off thread to do now. Pictures:
