I love the mud and streaking too, very nice save!

Thanks for the cool comments.

I really enjoyed figuring out how to rebuild this, but I hope I never has to do this again.

Nice recovery, really nice looking build there. And good to hear Dragon sorted you out.

I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

Taking another look on my laptop and really like the streaking on the casemate and the dust and grime on the lower hull. Well done Tim.

A few years ago, I was on the weathering stage of building the Cyber Hobby (Kit #9123) 15cm Sturm-Infanteriegeschutz 33. I got home from work one day and found my new beagle had gotten out of her kennel and had a little snack. The Suspect:   

First things first.....HEY DOOG!! Big Smile (I grew up with Beagles; love 'em, love 'em, ;ove 'em!!! )

I'm really happy to hear that Dragon would send you all the replacement parts, That's really honestly great customer service!

And you made a great looking model out of a total wreck! It looks wonderful! I have to be honest, I would have just bought another kit; these are fairly cheap today, but the challenge of rebuilding it would certainly have been an attractive challenge!

Yes, great save Tim. I'm looking at in on my phone, but the weathering looks well done.

Ohhh. Well I'm very glad you did. It's a sweet model.

 Modeling is an excuse to buy books.
