Now that I've photographed it I've seen one or two things that I might tweak, otherwise it's pretty much as done as it will ever be.![]() ![]() ![]()

Looks great, but those tow cables look way out of scale. |

Nice T1 Paul. Is that the initial camo used in Tunisia? |

A couple of things to ponder:- 1. The images on my monitor are about 3-4 times larger than the model, the cables appear heavily emphasised (it's also punishing on the finished model!). 2. The cables are moulded as thinly as I would guess practicable in this scale. I've got a Dragon kit where the cable is provided as stranded wire with separate moulded eyelets, this is probably a lot more scalish. Also I have an Ace Centurion kit where they supply cables as moulded vinyl, not bad in principle but it leaves you with flash to remove. |

That's the idea, 'pea green' according to eyewitness accounts. I used Tamiya X58 which is the recommendation from one reference I found. The instructions quote 813 as belonging to the 'Kampfgruppe Lang', Panzer Regiment 7, 10.PzDiv,Maknassy Pass, 1943. |

After a bit of consideration I decided the top of the tank looked too clean compared with the lower hull, so I've dusted it up a bit. It really needs a base now.![]() ![]() ![]()
