Yep pretty cool!

Still pluggin away. Not the best kit - ever, but not an Alan SU-76 either!

 

[Iron Mike]

The brass adds a lot!

You still dry fitted? Guess you are since you got to paint the interior.

I don't think I have ever seen that tank before anywhere!

Great subject as well!

Interior is already painted.

Thanks Bob, they servered in France in 1940, North Africa, Malta and elsewhere (early war). Crappy kit, probably why more are not built.

Build photos completed, primer here we come!

Nice rig, I was smokin' over a new camera this year but a broken breaker in the garage has caused a domino effect, electrician coming out today to give estimate on new breaker box.

Bummer.

 

[JSteinman]

I have added Basswood trim to the back of the building, wall and elevated ground and trimmed to shape. Should I paint it black, stain it brown, or do a decoupage of Malta photos?

 

[moon puppy]

I like brown stain myself.

 

[Iron Mike]

A dark brown, almost black (espresso)stain would be striking and show off the woodgrain, while not detracting from the model. B)

Any one of the three sound good to me!!!!

I agree, the espresso would look awesome.
