Very impressive work Gary. All your hard work is paying off. That paintball gun is absolutely tops!

You guys should have known it wouldn't take me long to do something like this

I just can't help myself! Somebody stop me! @) @) :/ :haha:

Now it's time to finish the details, add the skirts and paint it tri-color camo. Looks like winter is going to arrive right on schedule, so by spring Young Herbert should be tip-top.

I'm not sure how I missed the end result but she's fantastic Gary! I would love a 1/6 like this, just the right size!

Oh, she's not done. I'm hoping to get her finished by spring, and should have some new posts over the next two weeks. Next is schurzen and paint. Once all the details are finished I'll get the sighting system dialed in.

I don't remember any posts about the wheels Max but the Hetzers road wheels look to be the same as the Panzer IIs? Are yours metal & would you know where spares could be picked up? Would they be easy enough to turn?

Maaaaagnificent work Mr U52................I can see the final look for this thing being a showpiece and a credit to you.
How are the Schurzen brackets going to impact on this stage of your work ?

It's funny you guys should bring this up because I was just airbrushing the camo scheme last night. When I get home from work I'll post a picture or two. I still have to make some kind of mask or stencil because I want to paint on the Balkan cross and the number which for this tank I think is going to be 522.

I'm hoping to have it complete by 4th of July and then I'll bring it outside and paint Mark all the cars of all the neighbors that have ticked me off over the last year. @)
