Pz.Kpfw.IV Ausf.E Tauchpanzer & E-50 (50-75 tons)/Standardpanzer

Great work on the Tauchpanzer paint job...you really did a nice job in creating tonal variety on the tank's surfaces.  The dust/dried mud effect is convincingly done as well...just enough to create that sense of realism you want....I really like this presentation.

He (Model Maniac) didn't do anything other than hand over money for them.  Model Maniac is simply a collector showing his latest acquisitions that are all built by others.

The E50's barrel should be a dark grey, not "primer red". Tell Art Instuctor that this argument was heavily debated on major websites, and the conclusion based upon factual photographic evidence was that the Germans used a dark grey primer on gun barrels, NOT the typical primer red used on armor parts.

Other than that, both are well-finished.

Iowahawkeye - thanks for your kind compliments, from me and my artist.

Karl - thanks for your kind words! Unfortunately that Art Instructor didn't join that debate and websites. He just followed the color guide which calls for Red Brown for the barrel - same color as on the hull. And I think it looks better than Dark Grey!
