Couple of shots of my Tamiya Pershing. First photo is the original listing photo from eBay. Second photo is as it is tonight. Not quite finished, I have still have some small detail parts to add including back lights and i need to get a couple of the correct size screws to hold down the upper hull.
Thanks for looking guys

Wow what a major difference! So much better than before

Good for Mr Percy , saved a perfectly good tank from a disaster !!
Nice job

Glyn how did you accomplish such a beautiful job of modulating the olive green? It's not easy to do on these allied pieces

TOTM?

Nicely done, will you be selling it like the Panzer IV?

Thanks for the kind words gents.
Not sure if I will keep or sell this one. Although it looks pretty rough in the first picture it was actually put together quite well. I ironed out a few problems with the turret funtions, replaced a few detail parts and painted it. I wasn't a great fan of the Pershing when I got this model so really got it to restore and sell. Now it is nearing completion it has grown on me. I think that the Pershing is a much better made model than the panzer iv And it has more functions. The fun in this hobby for me is the building or restoring process, once I have finished with a model it generally sits on a shelf so it makes sense for me to sell one to finance the next one. So
I will sell either this one or the panzer 4 and try to find another tank in need of some tlc

You’ve done a cracking job on both!

If I wasn’t selling the kv1 and leopard I’d be interested in the Panzer iv. Although I have had one and stupidly sold it lol

That's what I do. I get these tanks, do a nice job on them, sell them and think to myself "I wish I had kept that one DOH!"
