Looking good so far. Would love to see a version with seated troops.

Not entirely convinced by the model itself but the paint job is coming along great.

...although there are no decals included in the kit of the 'Keilerkopf' suitable ones are easily sourced so I just added a few

Still undecided on the model myself; but, nice painting!

Stunning work, as ever.

Lovely model - fits very well with the Eisenkern aesthetic without being overly Wehrmacht, if you see what I mean.

Really top-notch work.  I love seeing what happens when Dwartist applies his brush to something.

My only beef with the kit -and this doesn't reflect on your work at all- is that it still seems to me to be too big. .  Maybe it's the influence of the historical vehicles that inspired it, or the huge wheels or the windows, or something, that I can't quite put my finger on, but it almost seems like a 1/35 scale kit that's being used for 28mm.

Still, I kind of want one...

I was asked to do a few comparisons on Dakka Dakka and it's not as big as you'd think (Khurasan's 'Caiman' APC is a lot longer for instance)...

Personally I love the model (although I have no use for one myself, we don't game in that scale, maybe some day I'll try to rationalize one as a terrain piece or some such) AND the paint job is fantastic!

Cheers

I'd be interested to see those, would you be willing to link or repost? 

I personally always thought Khurasan's "Caiman" -as nice as it is- was a bit big for the subject matter, but I should probably get out my Colonial Marines manual sometime and see.
