I've got some PzKfw IV's to finish, along with some other bits and pieces, for a (huge) diorama, plus the finishing touches to a Panther for a small diorama. But, when I'll be able to get around to it is another thing!
I might be able to throw in something eventually, but my house needs re-organising in order to place all the models and dioramas first!!

Looking great Wayne! Question though, is it easier build everything in one go and paint camouflage after, with wheels and everything on? What do you do?

Each of the tanks i have done I have built the main kit with most of the bits'n'pieces attached, but left off the wheels and tracks, did these separately.
