Somehow I grow to like the quite famous Ferdinand, however until recently the Elefant variant was more popular on the market and I wanted to make especially the early version. Dragon came along, but as it usually is with their kits - quite pricey. Then Zvezda announced that the beginning of this year will see their iteration of the famous assault gun, reasonably priced and well made - so I got is as my birthday gift.
First idea was to show it before the famous operation Zitadelle, however, reviewing the sources and photos gave an idea to make a small scene after the operation, yet before the withdrawal of the Ferdinands for an overhaul and upgrade to Elefants.

The hull and the breech. It's all nicely moulded, and the gun is quite detailed as for something that will sit enclosed ...
