    I won't be bringing anything to show.

    Panzer III Ausf J. Das Werks, 1/16 scale.

    Thanks Bob. I admit that I'm out of my element beating up on a model. And not being familiar with Panzer itself is a double whammy.

    The restaurant we were went to last year (or was it 2 years ago) was a pretty good find.

    Beat up the road tires a bit.

    Panzer III Ausf J. Das Werks, 1/16 scale.

    Got the spare track made up for the front. Because of the Das Werk design to make up the links I had to modify the ones on each end. Cutting off the molded on pins and drilling through the link so they look like they would accept rods.

    Thinned the plastic heat shields under the rear and got rid of one of the hinged fenders. I also thinned the plastic on the front hinged fender extentions.

    Another TRIP IN AUSTRALIA -Tasmania July/ August 2025 Part 6 The End

    I know that rock has not budged for a million years but if I built my home on it I still wouldn't sleep easy.

    Panzer III Ausf J. Das Werks, 1/16 scale.

    Spent the last couple days working on the engine deck. Need to add the steel texture. I'm leaving off the tow cables clamps for now as I may show one end of one of them hooked to the front. I also think at this point I may try to beat up some of the sheet metal on the rear. I know, wrong time...

    Starting to think about how to paint this beast. If I glue the upper hull and engine deck on at this point I'll have trouble getting paint down in the channel along the fenders. I'll at least get this area primed and pre-shaded before mating them up permanently.

    Yeah, I can't play at that price level.

    Panzer III Ausf J. Das Werks, 1/16 scale.

    Thinking of displaying this build in a dio. I have these figures coming on a slow boat from China. I'm not sure whether I'll use the crew member leaning out of the hatch, yet. There is no interior detail and I'm not in the mood to build it either. I see when they get here. I will be using the...

    Verfallen figures.

    Excellent scene. I hope the 1/16 scale offerings will expand one day.

    A lot of holes to drill on the engine deck. Mostly for tow cable hold downs for the "B" & "C" versions.

    Now I'm wondering if I should have the lower shell hit go clean through the armor plate 🤔

    Panzer III Ausf J. Das Werks, 1/16 scale.

    Moving to the upper hull. The extra armor plate is on. I didn't add it as the instructions show how to as that looked like a good way to get into trouble. There's 13 pieces that make up this plate. Which means a number of ways to screw up and get it crooked. This kit is not a walk in the park...

    I suspected there were but yes, I haven't seen any photos that show those.
