Hi all!
Finally an update!

So apart from a couple of details ( oil and fuel stains, some light chipping to finish off and a final layer of dust on the windscreen), this part of the project is finished!

Back to the figures next.

I made a scenic base but hated it so made a plain black plinth for it...

Hi Mark
That is an excellent result. Look forward to the figures.

Just had a catch-up. That is coming on very nicely indeed.

Also good to see that I'm not the only person that hasn't finished their SimonT tribute build!!

ATB.

Nice work Mark. Both the model and the photography are top notch..

[gothicgeek]

Apart from the steering wheel this is now finished.
You may notice the bolt i've used to support the model, I decided that the weight of the figures might over time stress the suspension so I plan on mounting the kubel to the base and then adding the figures.

Anyway, pictures

First figure in place. The paper is holding the steering wheel while pva dries.
Next I'll remove the figure and really fix the steering wheel and do any touch ups required...

Great looking figure. I especially like the fur effect in the parka hood.

That is a top bit of figure painting very nice.

Lovely job!

Hi Mark
A really nicely painted figure. Looks to fit very realistically.

Two figures now in place, painting up 3 and 4 at the moment



Not happy with the pictures atm, I think I need a bigger booth.
This was designed for figures only, how will I fit a 1/16th tank in there?
Next project is a luchs or a stug 3....
