The Marder
![Album image #1 Album image #1](/albums/img/1/8/0/295180-11813-19-720.jpg)
Hull & turret ready and primed.

I used almost all of the Extratech PE on this, however I left some rails because the flatness of the PE was no better than the plastic.

Some PE, some original railguards. I didn't want to spend too much time soldiering wire, they look good as they do.

Again: I left the kit's lamp guard because it has in my opinon better dimensions. I replaced the blinkers (I suppose) and mirrors.

Some turret details. It's a little shame that nobody does the metal barrel in 1:72.

Side skirts, tow cables and Link & length tracks. I preassembled the curves and hope it will all come together...
![Album image #7 Album image #7](/albums/img/1/8/6/295186-11813-68-720.jpg)
MILAN launcher (a real pearl and great Revell engineering in this scale) and the MG.
![Album image #8 Album image #8](/albums/img/1/8/7/295187-11813-77-720.jpg)
Yes, I did replaced the MG's plastic, rather fat and ugly barrel with a metal one.

The Marder is finished (some time ago).
![Album image #10 Album image #10](/albums/img/7/1/1/349711-11813-73-720.jpg)
I'm quite happy with the overall result, the tracks were - as usual - a little pain to assemble correctly.

![Album image #12 Album image #12](/albums/img/7/1/3/349713-11813-52-720.jpg)
I didn't weather it much, mostly due to the scale. It's quite dark anyway.

Although there is no main gun barrel replacement, it still looks surprisingly well.

Thank you all very much 🙂 I must say, I like those Revell 1:72 models, because they pack quite an impressive set of details for the scale - even without the PE parts.

Really nice! And I agree with you, when it comes to 1/72 scale Bundeswehr vehicles, Revell is unbeatable.
