The Bronco tracks make the Tamiya tracks look clunky
Projekt: Tamiya Panzer II DAK

Great start 👍 I'm courious how the Bronco tracks will fit. Can you recommend the resin parts?

Yes, I recommend them, BUT, you have to make the parts fit by cutting out some of the Tamiya parts.

Some pictures added. Added some color, and working on the Bronco tracks. I will be working on putting the decals and weathering soon. I just have to get the color on the tank just right. Some suggestions would be helpful.

Here are some photos from a recent restoration in Kubinka. The tank used to be painted in Panzergrau, but at some point was stripped back down, reprimed, and repainted in Dunkelgelb for battle. It was captured by the Russians, put on display in a trophy exhibition, then painted green for some reason, then painted gray over that with fictional markings. Yuri Pasholok and his crew restored it to the original Dunkelgelb paint and the markings that it carried at that time.

Maybe I should put firecrackers in it and quit. But, I will push on. It already looks better than my OOB build of this same kit I built in Iraq.

C'mon, Dave, no demolition actions, please - your build look so good and I can't wait to see it finished. You know that the tank from your reference/project photo is in Ft. Benning? There's a nice page with reference pics about it:

The color looks like Gelbbraun RAL 8020 to me, which also would fit in the timeframe. That would be Tamiya XF57, Humbrol 93 or the like. Btw, an English version of EnsignExpendabls link is here:

Baby's got new shoes, maybe I can finish this before I die!

I still have to fill in the head lights and add an antenna - I need to add more pictures
