Coming along nicely on this one Bruce!! :shoutout: :shoutout:

I see you're going through the throws of color shades. Been there and done that many times. In the end it's all left up to personal interpretation. There are a million opinions out there on this and in the end the only one that really matters is our own. Build on my brutha.....I'll be tuned in.

Joe! Thank you for following and your comments. You are right about the opinions on what is what color out there, who makes the most accurate. Like many on the forum, I would swear by Model Master for integrity, consistency and ease of use. Although the Tamiya colors are growing on me I find myself thinking about Panzer Grey.

Bruce, this is more incredible work you're doing! I have been following along but not as much as I would if I got notification here. Having built this kit for a commission, I know how good it is. Still, your skills have made it come to life in ways mine hasn't. I know if you did that diorama, it would certainly match Shep Paine's skill, if not surpass it.

Bring it home Bruce!

Bruce, here’s a good shot of some German armor cleaned up and on parade after they fall of Poland. Take into account the lighting conditions, but I think that Tamiya Panzer Gray is a good match.

Mark! You are too kind. When is this month’s Hobby Day? I’m hoping it’s the second weekend, so I can bring this and you can give me pointers.

Carlos! Your research and interpretation skills are formidable. Thank you for taking the time to post these images. Truly. These are an incredible window back in time. An older era. A vanquished era. These are amazing propaganda shots.

Nice work on the lower hull closing up all of the motorization holes Bruce. Once it’s all painted up, it’ll look great!
