Thanks Steve! This was the first Bronco kit I'd built in several years and the quality of their kits has improved dramatically, no question about it. Bronco does go the 'lots of tiny pieces' route to...

Thanks Jeff! The MK's do require a little more work but are worth the effort IMHO. There was nothing wrong with the Bronco tracks other than the fact that they were static indies and I like to use...

Started in on the fun part this round with the weathering work on the fighting compartment and the rear portion of the gun. As a foundation, I created some scuffs/chipping by stippling MM enamel...

Thanks David! The PE was no easy task but does produce a very nice result. Bronco did a good job with the detail particularly on the mesh texture IMHO.

Got some time in today on the Marder and it was a 'fun with PE' day in more ways than one. The entire rear 'cage' of the fighting compartment is assembled out of PE and the frame consists of a single...

I didn't get a solid enough block of time to do paint work so instead focused my efforts on the Pak 36(r) main gun. Step 28 assembles the breech, the recoil tray, the gun barrel and muzzle brake, and...
