so heres the plan

had major mojo loss since xmas for several reasons so need something to get me going again, something reasonably simple

so im going to do this anti tank gun that i picked up in a clearance sale in hobbycraft about 5 years ago

not much to it....one sprue for the gun and another for the crew

but then im going to add a few extra figures from these.........

and put it all on the dio base i made before xmas

might make me do a little bit more to the base :D

ive not been idle, just not been posting progress cos its just been little bits each day

must say i will be glad when this is done, figures never were my fave thing, bored stiff of them now lol

the PAK has come out a little darker than planned, picked up 'german grey' not 'panzer grey' so when i did do it in the right one it came out a bit dark but its going to get muddied up anyway

I'm the same mate anymore than two figures and I get sick of them real fast, yours look great for this old kit, I'm pretty sure the old tamiya kits come with the decal for the helmet.
