Thanks guys Yes it's the Profiline kit from Mr Tom with the hang long Panzer IV chassis. It's going to be a fun one this panzer III

I actually had some time today to work on my tanks

Just cleaning up the lower hull connections and yes the fit the tracks and running gear.

Mounted early Tiger I metal headlights to give it a unique look, like it was cobbled together somehow. The fellow who built and designed this Steel hull had the measurements absolutely spot on. The Panzer III plastic upper hull will have magnets for easy access

I've fitted Heng Long metal tracks. The plan for the turret base for the mighty 88 is my next project.

A very nice weekend off and I've had time with family and of course my tanks. I have continued to work on the panzer III lower hull for the massive 88mm gun.

I installed the magnetic latch setup with a front latch for easy access to the electronics.

I mounted the tk60 from Maxmekker and his custom made speaker enclosure. I'm using the 8 channel setup with the i6 radio.

The board had some very nice panther sounds on it so it sounds quite impressive IMHO. I painted it a late war tri color camoflouge pattern with just a brown filter added for now. The front sprockets and return rollers are red oxide paint to give it a late war look.

I've ordered the panzer III lower turret base that I will modify to mount Alwyn's gun. Still need some photo etch bits and engine grills but it's getting there....

Thanks so much for looking

Looking very smart. Love the camo.

That will be a nasty hitter

Thank you very muchI do like how the colors have come out on this one. With such a small canvas I didn't want to do too heavy with the green and brown. Adam, Soeren thank you

Love the Waffentraeger, great idea there!

Thank you Mr Wibbly I'm glad you like the concept.... My plan is to paint the gun in a completely different camoflouge pattern to make it look more like a What if last ditch effort to bring the big gun to the battle, even if the panzer III lower is stressed beyond its limits...

Great idea.

It's not as crazy as you might think, I built two of these over the years, they were made out of damaged PIII's in the desert using a SIG 33 artillery gun. They became so good that the Stug was designed around the idea.
