Its a shame Dragon doesnt produce a US towable ant tank gun for this kit like the 7.5cm PAK gun they have.I have it to be towed by my 1/6 Kettenkrad.

Looking good out in the sunshine Nem, it must be an operation just getting through the doors to the outside.

Me too!! I reckon that would be as big a seller as the Senna MP4/4 seems to be AND it has an engine!!

Lovely work on the build so far Daran, top painting and weathering skills on show here - well done!!

And so we move on to some more detailing. The shovel and axe are done, really pleased with how they came out. Jerry can is done, it will get some dust and stuff when finally fitted in the carrier, and all the seats are done, again some fine tuning when installed.

Fantastic job so far Nemesis.

The wood on the tools looks amazing!! Did you paint the grain on or was it already moulded like that? It looks really convincing!!

Hello and thanks for the comments. The grain was already there on the tools, it was a case of getting the colour right and the right washes to make it look the part.

Looks fab,

the patina you have achieved on the worn paint of the jerry can is spot on, all in all outstanding!
