Thanks for looking in peeps!
Well I have more or less finished the engine, a hose needs doing with the straps and a winch cable, then dust and mud to apply, but that will be done along with the howitzer as its a bit of a messy job! Next up, Joe gets his face and weathered and then the howitzer gets a coat of German grey!

Really loving this build Daran, a great subject and I think you've made a fantastic job of everything. I reckon it's your best ever, just pipping your 1:16 T-34 tank which was my favourite and I thought would be hard to beat, but this one is definitely a notch higher - very well done mate!! 
Love the oily steamed look you've achieved with the boiler on your engine and Joe looks fantastic - top job.
