I wonder what happened to most of those guys. They all drifted away from FSM, and most never popped up on any of the other sites where I frequent.

Thats true. But I haven't been active on there in years. If you're not building 1/32 or larger aircraft, any work posted is mostly ignored.

Ya, but I think this will take several more days of work before I can call it done. I have to finish adding the stencils on the upper surfaces, add a few more decals, do touch ups on the invasion stripes, plus a few more bits to add or fix in the engine area. And the usual panel line wash, weathering, etc.

I started making proper progress on my Marder III about the time we started having the forum bandwidth issues, so here is my update...

I had added the tools and some stowage onto the fenders

I next added the transmission that I had bought, the driver and gunner figures, and attached the armored gun shield superstructure.
