Pz III N 15 Pz Div Tunisia

Well it's the 3rd and final repaint for this one I hope. Going with this one instead.

Painted in 2nd Tropen scheme with Mr Paint lacquers

I've started weathering the lower hull, looking for a dried mud effect.

PZ III N s.Pz-Abt 501

 I built this kit a couple of years ago and picked it up again recently, but I wasn't happy where the weathering was going so I've decided to strip the paint and try again. Here it is before a new coat of primer.

Most of the etch is from the kit except the exhaust deflector which is from the Aber set and the clasps are Griffon. Some other minor improvements like the jack block strap. The cable clamps are from the new MJ miniatures 3D printed set. They are perfection with no cleanup what so ever required with no visible print lines, unlike other 3D sets that I've used in the past.

Pz IV G Kharkov- ready for paint

 

This is the Dragon kit 6363 as a tank of LAH during the 3rd battle of Kharkov with my usual minor upgrades.




 













Pz III M- Sicily ready for paint

This was made from several different Dragon kits to represent a Pz III M belonging to HG Pz Div during the allied invasion of Sicily.

Tracks and cable clamps are Modelkasten, Griffon model clasps on the turret bin and jack block. The rest is pretty much out of box.
