Bruce, I'm not sure it was a farmer who owned it but it was sold for 65.000§ and the photos gave me the idea it was a farmer or so.

Very cool! Wonder how a Farmer got ahold of it? The Tiger II from La Gleize was traded for a bottle of cognac shortly after the liberation. This however remains a mistery. |

Thank you my good men. Currently I'm pinwashing, washing, applying filters etc. to the hull. To avoid stress I work in small controllable areas. I'm using AK rust washes, oil washes/filters and Humbrol enamels.    |

Nice additions of texture!!! It's partially the salt method creating the texture Joe, and dabbing the extra thin glue to get the cast iron look before all the paint jobs. |

Today the wheels were given different rust washes to alter their uniform look. The left side of the hull was done with slightly darker wash. More old grease and grime are for tomorrow.  |
