Yes, yes, no place for foul language here!
Save it for when you really need it, like when you lose a part on a HARDWOOD FLOOR!!

I'm still mystified as to where that Ma Duece went...

Still lookin' real good, Horus. Hope mine goes nearly as well. One cool think is that those turret containers hide the glue seam really well. I would have spent hours working on that and all for nothing!! lol See, you've helped me already!

Are you building it in instruction sheet order?? Got any advice for me yet??

Going to be a busy night tonight. (Dishwasher to install! YaHa...Nothing like a little 1/1 scale work!)

Hey Horus the kitty is coming along nicely. Have you decided how you're going to paint it yet? Panzergrey? Keep us posted.

Tigerman,
as far as i have been told the mid pros did not come in Panzergrey...and oh how i wish they did:)
I am going to do a winter wash scheme, in a Soviet front type setting(this eliminates the need to do zimmerit snce i do not want to mess it up...lol)
I found the pic in my Tigers in combat book :)

Thanks for the compliments!

Horus,
Thanks for the tip. Here's a small one for you. I noticed in that the next issue of FSM has an article on winter whitewashing armor!! Very timely.

Zimmerit, zimmerit, zimmerit...now where did I leave that putty knife!!
