Incredible my friend, absolutely incredible. I think you have done a fine job and I wish you all the best on your next bit of modelling madness
    He’s a Genius Steve I think that’s how he pulled this build off

          Hi John, great therapy on the small stuff and hanging in there. In this scale you work with tweezers more often and lesser broad strokes when painting...something like miniaturising your building method with the help of magnifiers.
          Good attempt and hope you do more.

          Cheers,
          Richard

              Hi John,

              Another small project, it looks very much like a Hetzer.

                Thanks Steve , still have to use an optivisor more fun with the left eye covered, getting quite good now with depth of field, occasionally miss and attempt to glue thin air.

                      See what you guys mean about the hetzer appearance, but the coffin door on the front must be a bit offputting for the crew…….

                        I had never heard of it before, but it’s clearly a Pz.J. 38 (t) that had its gun removed, the hole plated over, and a new roof with that overly big turret added.
