Simon, that's already looking outstanding as you work your magic. There's a very good AK Interactive DVD on winter schemes with some off the wall ideas. Not much use to me with a tropical Centurion but one day...... Following with interest as ever. Thanks for posting. See you at TankFest? Stephen

thanks robert for the encouragement, it's a job to know what to post, having most of these stages covered in other builds, regards simon.

Simon, for your builds it's all good to see. I'm sure I speak for many that I love to see something of your painting and weathering techniques. We've talked together a lot about how much can be adopted from what people do in 1/35th and there is so much to learn. You've got a lot further than most. Keep it coming. Stephen

By the way, Simon, if it's of interest, the caption in Russian on the colour scheme pic reads: "3rd company, 101 Heavy Tank Battalion, SS. Ardennes, December 1944".

Regards. Stephen
