Jenny Croft wrote:Well Laura , If I knew earlier that you were building this I would have given you the ammo stowage from my Dragon Bison I kit !

it was a very spontaneous decision to add this one to the fio and squeeze in the panzerjäger as my second build in xlbl but thank you jenny!

Wow, Laura! THe time it took me to get here, you've already finished half the vehicle! You're fast!

THe build looks very clean.... and good job on the shield too!

no miracle with an ootb build! that little modification is done with the left hand!

well ... the last days i haven't been lazy! i did some basic interior painting, pimped the muffler a little bit and added two boxes for tools so that i can spare me the not-so-good-tools from the kit! sometimes taking the shortcut is the better way! hehehe!

in parallel i continued working on the flak and the demag and maybe i can show an update of both later today!





the gun is not the one i will put into this one and both - gun and shield are only dryfitted!

Definitely I'll have to take some lesson on speed building with you Laura. You're doing a perfectly clean and fast build here; congratulations!

Ruben

Yup, fast and clean. This little bugger is looking real good

Nice update!

Shields looking good, clean build, clear photos......... what else! Keep it up!

Noel

thanks guys! all but the gun is done and glued in place!

drilled out the auxiliary exhaust and added the cabling for the notek! not visible is the hollowed out muffler and the alternative cover for the muffler!





only minor filling and sanding to be done on some spots!

Looking very nice Laura

Jenny

Looking good Laura

So it's soon painting time, I suppose.

Look forward to it.

Hey Laura,

Great build! I will never get used to your's and Jenny's models! You guys are really great! I guess that makes me a sexist for saying that, but I have an excuse! I'm just an old senile guy who has spent his entire life in modeling with a bunch of dudes! All of a sudden, in my advanced age, along comes two chics, both of who, know more about armor than I do! Just another reason why this site is the best there is!!

Really good job Laura!

Bob

Nice build, Laura. Which story for a diorama will be this?

thanks bob and johnny!

johnny - big dio! biiiiiiiig one ... will be the dio for the XMM entry!

so ... the build is finished! only thing left before priming is filling and sanding of the gun shield where it meets the hull!









now i can start relaxed into the XMM gb with a slower and more careful build starting with the diobase!

Beautifull looking Panzerjager! Looking forward to see this dio finished!

Erik

Nice work. Should be another little cracker when finished.

You've got a very clean build there! Excellent work!

Regards
Noel

Excellent work Laura. Will be a Beauty when painted!

Ruben

thanks guys!

on wednesday i primed this babe, yesterday i had no time for the bench and today i gave it a black coat this morning and just returned after two layers of different grey from the sauna aka attic!









today's mishap: when i applied the black paint three parts decided to leave the vehicle two i could reglue but the third one is out of reach - no chance to put it back ... minor problem since it cannot be seen!

next: the green stripes!

Good progress and nice basecoat.

Same procedure like everytime. Your playing with the shades of grey is awesome!

Nice work Laura for all that cool weathering .

Just remember Laura , that your "heatwave" is about the same temperature we have here in summer ..........

INSIDE OUR REFRIGERATOR !!!!!!

Jenny

Looks very good, Laura! I like the pre-shading.

I look forward to see the green stripes.

Regards
Noel

thank you very much!

today's task: green! well ... 10 minutes painting, 50 minutes cleaning the ab!

and when taking the piccies noticing that the camo didn't come out like wanted but whatever ... still acceptable!





one pic came out very blurry - sorry for that!

next: markings!

Nice camo scheme ! Love it !

Jenny

Good camo Laura,

It's hard to see this camouflage on model, almost everyone does it just gray.
