He's probably been overcome by the fumes from all the products he's been throwing at this model. Either that or the little guy has dropped the grenade :ha:

Decals are now in place and the tools have been painted. Just the mattcote and weathering.
Slowly but surely......

No point in rushing too much if you're that close Ian. I'm looking forward to seeing the end result.

No need to worry, Shaun. The last couple of bits didn't take long. And here we are, the Matchbox Panzer II!

A lovely kit and a great base to boot. Matchbox certainly led the field in small scale armour! In some respects I think they still do.

Now to clear the bench ready for the Vampire GB......
