Very nicely done. The finish of the tank really blends well with the groundwork. How did you get the sand to remain stationary?

Looks great, I really like the weathering job on the tank. One question the guy standing is he the DML figure that comes with the little dog.

thanks all. as modelers it's great to have a place to post pic's . i got the map. off of dragon's kit COMMANDERS CONFERENCE [kharkov 1943] kit num 6144. it's the only one i found that look like maps in books. tamiya has a set of maps in german soldiers at field briefing.kit 35212. but dragons looked better.

Super job Vonryan. The desert enviroment you have created is top notch. Just to be sure I understand your tip on placing the sand on the panzer, you place the sand first, and then apply the glue or is the glue applied first, and then the sand? Really like your work. Thanks for sharing with us. Semper Fi, mike
