Thanks everybody, having to wait to finish the top part till the clear coat comes in, getting ready to start on the lower hull. My next project is changing my M1A2 from desert camo to a nato camo scheme.After that will be my Stug III from green to ?. Not for sure on that one yet.

All done, just waiting for the new mounting brackets that hold the spare track links in the front and the decals to come in.

Next project will be changing my desert camo M1A2 to a Nato camo scheme. I have already applied the nato green base coat.
