Nice work Phil, I like the figures which will bring the whole model to life. Makes me think of Michael Wittman - Germany's ace tank commander. Boy was he dangerous when he came upon any allied targets!
Well done.

Nice work on the towing ropes Phil, they look well used and weathered and the way that you've weathered the whole tank makes it look and feel icey cold, like it's had a hard time on the Russian front!
A successful build and finish - well done.
