I really like this.  The weathering is nice and understated (not every tank has to look as though it's sat in a wet field for 20 years), and suggests a newly issued Panther.  Did you do the camo by hand?

I'd suggest you do an M5 or M8 next.  They are very enjoyable to build.

Thanks...weathering in my opinion should be realistic and depict vehicles in operational service ....subtle equals realistic...camo and all base painting shading by airbrush. ...again subtle shading not stark white to black makes a more realistic lighting highlight and shadows...
yeah M8 and M5A1 looks great...got all the kits now except pz 4 and Tiger 1...loving the ease of build and high level of detail...built stug as well just have to finish paint...and 251 ...needs base paint...but always good to start another one ....cant wait for 250/3 !
