Another light project. It is going together well, so far a found a little flash but no other problems. I will be painting it Panzerdunklegrau with Dunklebraun like some vehicles were at the beginning of the war, like I painted my Panzer IV basically.

That's a great kit for a quick simple project.

I am surprised at the detail on the underside, almost messed up the wheels though, the A and B. Not going to put the protective cover on the back, I think that was more for vehicles in North Africa. This will be an early war version, East Front. I saw a picture of a 222 on a website that was from the early war and it was camouflaged. Think it was panzerworld.com. They said it was tank grey and a dark brown, but the picture was black and white, dont know, but Ill just do this like I think looks OK. Not going to add the figures though because I suck at painting figures.

Lol. Worst case, you can use the kit figure to practice and hopefully improve your skills there.

Usually I just sell the figures on E bay, usually get about 3 or 4 Euros for em.

This is coming along fine I think, Been procrastinating on cutting out the mesh though. I painted tho bottom before I put on the wheels, I will be painting the top soon, when I get the turret hatches on. I want to make the hatch able to open and not just static though, shouldn't be too hard I think.

Finally went farther with this one, go the grenade cages on the turret hatches and the Panzer grey on it, gonna have to go back over the nets and poke the holes back out where the paint closed it up, probably get the brown on it today and then the details this week.
