Thanks guys!
@Laliscale: i decide to play a bit with the colors, let´s see how it will turn out at the end 😁
Looks great, Simon!
Seems like a genius way to get the tracks conformed to the ground.
Simon, when I saw this I felt guilty not made any new progress.
Ugh man… I should hurry up…
Wonderful build, weathering and diorama. Doesn´t look like 1/72. 👍 👍
Awesome mud effects and general weathering. Lots of detail crammed into such a small scale 👍
Thanks so much to all of you mates!
Thanks for your great comments 🤩
The mud is really outstanding 👍 Also, the adjusted suspension really does a lot to give this build some dynamic feel!
Wow!!! Amazing what you did to this simple kit! 👍 The colors, the grubbiness, the small details, just superb!
Tom, Rui and Patrick, thank you so much for your encouraging comments!

Actually another joint venture project with my Chinese friend, but this time I was maybe done too quickly.... ?
However...
Concerning Trumpeter's 1/72nd scale models, i'm always a bit skeptical about their quality as far as details are concerned.
They are not bad, clean casting and good fit and so on, also here everything is available, but I am bothered that always somewhere in the finish is saved on the details.
For my taste, small but essential details are often missing.
In order to satisfy myself a little better, I made a few minor changes and added small details that I took mostly out of the leftover box.
In addition I used a gun barrel from OKB Grigorov (S72065) and the commander ́s shield from Armory (AR PE7252)
The anti-tank barriers and letters were made by a friend of mine with the 3D printer.
But despite everything, they always offer sufficient quality for "quick fun" and little money - that fits.
