Tamiya Panzer IV Ausf D Finished

[Hamden]

After a protracted semi scratch build of Tamiya's Panzer IV Ausf D into a vehicle about to be restored, this involved some scratch building of the interior added to which a CMK T120 resin engine which had one cylinder head removed. Along side this a scratched aux engine was installed together with a lower half of the main engine air cleaner, some interior detail was added including transmission, seat frames, steering brake units and some ammo storage bins. The turret has been displayed on a turret stand alongside with a pair of post pallets less sides with some sections of track and some of the hatch covers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I've enjoyed this project and think it looks reasonably derelict. 

I would like to thank @perdu and at @dad203 for their encouragement to under take this project.

Thanks for looking

Hi Roger. That turned out superbly! I think you have managed to create very effective burnt out and rusted effects. Very well done. 

Kind regards,

Stix

Great results on your build 👍

I think that the best thing that I can say about this build is that it is difficult to make plastic genuinely look like rusted metal, but you done that brilliantly. Nice one.

Nice rusty Panzer. Make a rusty model in my opinion is harder then the typical one. Good job.
