Nice work Simon!
First class paint job that is, well done.
The sprockets, is that the "new generation" ones or have you done some work on the earlier kit pair?
Keep up the good work.
Kind regards.
Kent

Simon, there is always something to learn from your pics and , i as always use to say, a good paint makes disappearing also the best detail.
Cheers
Luca

it goes without saying, glad you all liked the periscope and the paint, the secret weapon behind the chips fabrice is the small "sponge" very easily applied and gives a good result using tamiya xf 64, thanks simon.

Simon, all superlatives have been used to express our feelings towards your painting. There's nothing I can add. Can you show us an example of the "sponge" you use. I have been expirimenting but it's an awful lot of Panther with a very small brush
I will put up some pictures of a small area I'm doing with just a brush
