Ok,got some build updates... First the Bison II...

Next up the PzIII version...

I did the lower hulls so as to get the tracks built(and got carried away),the CMK drivers set will definitely fill in the empty space. I will be adding a radio for it from the spare parts bin and the Bison II will supply ammo for it. Now it's time to go into the paint booth.

Ok, everything is ready for primer,I'll get that on let it dry for a couple of hours then apply a base coat to the lower hull and around the suspension.

Got the black applied to the road wheels(wheels on sticks),instrument panel done,radios painted and tracks base coated.

New update...

You will notice some color differences between the lower hulls. That is(from my point of thinking) The Bison II was using the original paint RAL code when the units got to North Afrika and the Pz III (either an Ausf H or J) would probably have been the same. But with the field modification at that date the service crew would probably have used the updated RAL code to paint the entire vehicle. So I'm going with that thought since there are no pics to compare them with,plus the pics I do see seem to be the lighter color.

So with no more hee-hawing around let me know what you think...
