Hi guys and thanks

Tool holder were looking like that:

After my modification:

The tools were a bad quality so I took tools from other older kits

I also added a distinguisher and a "cable" which I have seen on many pictures.

All hatches can be opened and MG is movable; )

transport holder for thr barrel is also completely movable

Everything is added to the upper Hull so that I can apply side skirts tomorrow

This kit has many details missing and/or wrong but you can fix all and for me this is great fun

Kameradschaftlicher Gruß

I forgot. ..

I also modified the commander's MG holder and the MG itself

Just caught up on this looking very good and some very nice modifications too

 

[Wittmann205]

Thank you guys!

Yesterday evening I wanted to apply the side skirts ... but they needed the parts from the italeri kit. So I had to find a solution ...

I found out that the spare tracks from the kit may fit since I don't want to use them because of their crappy details.

So I modified them:

The fit the skirts

After that I first primed with vallejo model air "025" dunkelgelb RAL 7025:

Hope you like it

Fantastic build!!

Very detailed, with an excellent chipping effect. The weathering is great mate!

Five stars one.

Cheers. Polux

Fantastic stuff Benny, top work on the weathering and paint job.

Awesome Benny this looks great. Will we get some pics of the g? I havent looked yet to see if you have started a thread for it.

 

[PaulTRose]

thats some awesome weathering

is the chipping done by hair spray or sponge?

i keep wanting to do a yellow/green/reddish camo but am too much of a coward, scared of cocking it up lol

 

[Wittmann205]

Thx guys!

The chipping is made by sponge. If you keep in mind the different layers of colour In reality it looks as good as chipping by hairspray

Pictures of the ausf g will follow this afternoon.

Hope that tapatalk will work for a longer time so I can be online daily
