Nice work! Where did you get your figs, did they come with the kit? I'm building a Pzr. IV and I'm looking for figures to go with it.

I like the tracks, they look good! Were they indy link or vinyl?

McCoy, Panzer, Raf and Karl thank you for taking the time to post!

The figures are from Elhiem which are top in my opinion and the tracks are Dragon DS a hybrid between vinyl and plastic. They come as a belt though not single. Pins were used to simulate sag.

Wow....that's a gorgeous model there mate! I love the camo and the weathering; and the amount of detail for in this 1/72 scale is wonderful. Do you airbrush or hand paint? and what are the antenae made from?

Thanks White. The primer and the base color were airbrushed and after that the camo was applied with a brush. After that a very fine layer of the basic color was airbrushed over the entire model to blend the three colors together.

The aerials are made from Albion Alloys Nickel Silver Rod 0.33mm picked up at the local model store, but you can use standard electrical wire as well.

Cheers

Man, in this scale, you're the Master. There's life and depth in this one that one doesn't often see in models in this scale. Which I guess is my main problem with 1/72...they often look like 'models' as opposed to attempting to depict a 'miniature' of the real thing (if that's your aim). Beautiful stuff mate.
Peace.
