Jagdpanzer IV Variant Line up

Thanks guys

I used red auto body spot putty as a filler and just before it set up I took a very small flat screw driver blade to put the steps back in the zimm. I sprayed it with primer so I could see any low spots that needed more attention.

Thanks Again for the compliments

The difference is what makes German armor so interesting.

72F and partly cloudy yesterday and today it's 36F and raining.

Ozark weather is just like a box of chocolates.

Cheers

Tony lee

Tony - The master tin knocker strikes again....very nice

Now as far as interesting....some people like Coke, some Pepsi and the there is me...Dr. Pepper.

I love the works of art but as far as German......the lost

Much prefer my OD (or NATO Green, NATO Camo...etc, etc)

But I always like Tony work!!

Rounds Complete!!

Cooler than a Finger Lakes New York Thursday, Tony! (little inside joke there...)

I'm salivating to see what you're going to do with the painting. It should be very interesting to see you individualize each one!

Karl right after I made that post the rain changed over to ice pellets and nickel size snow flakes. We got enough to cover the deck before changing back to rain again. Calling for mid to upper 50s tomorrow.

The A-O was just plain dark yellow, no thoughts yet on the other three.

Mike I understand, Red and Green go together right?

Thanks Guys

Tony lee

Not red Tony.....Scarlet!! 

Rounds Complete!!

Oh Yeah, Sorry about that Mike.

We've had the same wierd weather here Tony. Wed we had a high of 80F and today's is only supposed to get to 50F! No rain or snow though, just sudden temp drops. Thankfully not into freezing temps as the trees have started to leaf out...this is always the "danger zone" for El Paso weather in terms of wild swings! They always say if you don't like the weather in Texas just wait a bit.

Schurzen done and tracks assembled

The shop is closed for the weekend

See You Monday

Tony lee

All you need to do Tony is hang out the "Gone Fishin'!" sign!

"Fishin" The doc said no more fish,i've reached my heavy metals ingestion limit Tex.

With the time change half the crew was an hour late this morning. I made them skip lunch in order to get all the external components placed.

The BBQ grill came out Saturday and I burnt some hog,Spring has sprung

Tony lee

Looks like you are beginning to kick this pig.....or was that the BBQ

Rounds Complete!!

I hear you Tony...the time change always messes with my schedule as well. I hate it...maybe I should just move to Arizona so I don't have to worry about it!

Bill the time change caused me to get the base coat on  the L/70 (A) one hour sooner than expected.

Cheers

Tony lee

That looks great Tony--I got a laugh out of your comment about the time change!

Hey, you should try some lightened DY over the top of that--give it a little f the "scale effect". That's such an effective painting strategy for plain ol' one-color vehicles. It really gives it an extra dimension.

It ain't goin to be just yellow Karl,it's more than likely going to be German Rainbow.

The A-O will be Dark Yellow since it's the prototype.

Thanks

Tony lee

Painting an hour early.......its always a good time to model....somewhere!!

Looks like the assembly line keeps moving

Rounds Complete!!

That 70 beast is really looking good... well done with the paint job.  You are definitely on roll... trying to beat the tax day I bet!

Rollin Rollin Rollin Rawhide

Andy you didn't have to bring up the subject of taxes,there goes my high

Tony lee

Man oh Man Friulmodel tracks trip my trigger.

Thanks for looking in

Tony lee

She looks sweet in the yellow base. Tracks are perfect 

Thanks

Switching back to the A-O tomorrow and bring it up to the progress of the L/70(A).

See You Later

Tony lee

In my haste to take the pictures I didn't check to make sure the wheels were down on the tracks,oh well

Tony lee

We'll forgive your momentary burst of enthusiasm...but only just this once Tony. You've got to stay focused man! Nice to see some paint getting thrown around.

Forgot one

Tony lee

Wait....look......it's Hanz and Franz.....they are visiting from Doogland. They look spify.....hummm the blue sweater is not exactly issue!!

Looking good.....I am sure it was almost a religious experience putting two sets of your favorite tracks together

Outstanding as always

Back to my bunker

Rounds Complete!!

Why Mike his dear old mother nit that sweater for his birthday.

Oh it was grand to do two sets only a couple of days apart and i've got two more waiting.

Will be starting on the L/48 & L/70(V)s Monday.

Take care buddy

Tony lee

Well folks with no more interest than this project is generating I think i'll just back out of here.

See Ya some other time

Tony lee

Maybe its the weather... it is summer already here in Indiana,  I have noticed that things have been quiet here and at other forums too.  I have been following your build since day one so please do not hesitate to post update when you have the chance. 

Keep up with the good work... because of you I buy more kits.

I'm still watching. Been involved in a GB, but life has had other tricks up her sleave for me. Could be spring Fever that has everyone sidelined or maybe it's March Madness.
