1/48 "Hetzer" Diorama done.... uff !!!!

Hello again,
I finally got around finishing the construction stage of this little fellow. It's the Tamiya kit with some Hauler and Lion Roar PE, the Conversion Set from MR Models and a few homemade items. The figure is from gaso.line.
Now it's time for the fun part :)
Have a good weekend and thanks for looking
Sven

Re:1/48 "Hetzer" Late

Hello again,
here's another quick update of what it did to the poor Hetzer. The painjob is based on a picture from a Hetzer at the Skoda works in May 1945. I am halfway done with the weathering, but as you can see there are some areas with only basic painting yet.
Thanks for looking and have a good weekend

Re:1/48 "Hetzer" Late

Hello again, thanks for your kind words. The Hetzer is about done and I am now working on the base. But here are some new pics:

Matt, the raw steel effect can be achieved with a sponge and acrylic paints beeing applied "wet in wet". It only takes 10 minutes. No hairspray whatsoever required.

I even got around painting a figure for the Hetzer. Not overwhelming as I do not consider myself a figure painter, but acceptable for this scale I hope.

Anyways, have a good one
Sven

Thanks Terry !

Ok.... this will be the last update, as I call this done. I made a little scene for it using parts of a brickwall set from the German company "Scale Fanatic".
Thanks for looking
Cheers
Sven
