I added 4 magnets for easy removing and attaching rear plate. With upper hull removing it`ll show most of the interior. 

Fits well. 

 

Masking periscopes... 

 

I should not forget to paint the periscopes before gluing armor.  

No wires, and no plans to recreate them.  

Preparing for final painting of hull`s interior. 

I don`t like a look of flat grills on models. 

 

Finally, shells are completed. 

Actually, there is a problem with front ammo storages, because they touch the levers of the roof. Well, it will damage paint on ammo.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

I heard that there can be problems with position of wheels, but seems there won`t be any. 

 

Painting of details will be challenging, but the will be no problem with the breech. 

 

Mounted Schürzen and the gun barrel, tried to use magnets, but that didn`t work well. Now friction from the remnants of epoxy resin keeps the barrel from falling out. 

Almost all external parts except the chassis are glued in their places. 

Also there were a problem with ropes - they are reflected 

You can still remove armor. But the paint on the shells in front will be scratched. Can varnish keep it? This is the question. 

 

Base of camouflage  

 

 

 

 

 

Now with painted tracks!  

 

 

So.... what was changed? I repainted brown lines 

 

Wash and THICKKK decals plus zimmeri. Brrrr
