Don't know if I'l.p. get it done, but I'l.p. give it my best shot. I've had this kit for a very long time.

Without looking, I have 2 Panzer IV's a D and an H, a Panther and a Nashorn, which I want to convert to a Hummel. Thanks, Gary S.How many of these cool, old 1/48 Bandai kits do have in your stash? They are excellent, indeed!

Got to work on the chassis this AM. Very small parts. Gary S.

Some of my detail pics. I'm thinking of painting all underside and engine compartment OD and showing the OD wear under the sand color.
These guy's look lit some really tough mothers. Gary S.
Has anyone seen the Rouge Warriors? Of course hollywood liberties are taken but it's still interesting.

The Jeep at the top is a metal diecast I found at Wal-Mart a few years ago. most of the parts are glue on. A few more left to do. Gary S.

The kit included a trailer so l decided to incorporate it in and make a mortar pit out of it.
Don't know if this was ever done, but whose to say it never happened. After all these guys were warriors and were capable of doing crazy things.
The figures are GI's that came with the kit. They had to be carved into short sleeves and shorts with arms and heads repositioned. I included an extra 50 cal. because I only had 1 Vickers gun when 2 were needed. The "sheik" head dress still needs to be added. I made a Silicon mold to made some more Jerry cans and another spare tire. So far so good. Gary S.
Nice carving Gary.

Applied a base coat of OD yesterday. Now for the fun part of mixing up some desert yellow acrylic and a lot of weathering. Gary S.

I used Vallero Iraqi Sand for the desert color. Some of it was scratched off on the hood to show the OD and US serial number. This is a trial lay out of the equipment and crew . Gary S.
Nice touch!

Still have some of the smaller details to work out along with the base. Gary S.
