Never seen this one before but a really good effort in replicating a Panzer III.

Go to Motorpool to see the finished Panzer III in it's camo too

Thanks Antony

Thanks Anthony. Enjoyed looking at that. It's a really good effort. Their attention to detail is impressive - they've got the double taper on the gun barrel, which is something to do on ours. They've called it an Ausf J but they've put the additinional exhaust structure of the Ausf M on the back but not the covers to the air intakes which were used to allow deep fording. It's definitely got the character of a Pz III despite only having five road wheels. Shows that if the characteristic features of a vehicle are there, it doesn't have to be 100% accurate to make a good replica.
