Well Bish, if you can step out of your comfort zone and build a bipe, then I suppose I can do the same and try my hand at some armor (if it qualifies). I have a Tamiya Panzer IV H that I hope would fit the bill (kit #209). It's been kicking around for almost a decade in my stash and now would be as good a time as any to dive into it. I have some Eduard PE to beef it up, along with some Kasten tracks and a metal barrel (forgot who makes the barrel though).  I'd paint it up as a vehicle of the 1st SS Panzer Division Leibstandart Adolph Hitler, France, summer, 1944.  Would this work?

It certainly will fit the bill Mike. It will complement by 1st SS Panther I am doing for the D-Day GB. I will add you onto the roster.

Glad to have you on board, after seeing your bipe's, I am really looking forward to seeing what you do with this.
