I think this is awesome!
In a panzer modelling world where nearly every model has its own set of particulars that you're more-or-less obligated to follow---color schemes, zimm, markings, etc---itwill be cool to have a model where you basically have free reign to use a little bit of imagination and freedom. Fir instance, you could pick any one of the late-war color changes ( overall green, primer red, even throw in some old panzer gray stripes or patches) and use this project as a nice break from the sometimes routine requirements of, say, your next tiger or panther...
I'm looking forward to this one!
