I remember seeing that old Testors/Italeri kit in my younger years. Back then, I wasn't much of a big armour kit builder.

They were some pretty good kits. I’ve built a few of them.

Thanks Stuart. I got the tracks finished a little while ago and will get some photos up once they’re fully dry.

Thanks TJ. It’s moving quickly now!

Yesterday I started adding some stowage- spare tracks, onto the fenders and glacis plate. I also painted the floorboards in primer red, which was supposed to be a standard practice on German AFVs.

Today I got the hull camouflage colors on, based upon multiple photos of this vehicle that I’ve found online. The colors were applied with a brush and rather roughly on the real thing.

I have to paint up the OVM tools now and get them installed, paint up the muffler, spare tracks, and whatever else I can to fill the time while I wait for the fighting compartment drivetrain goodies to arrive…
