Loic,

It looks amazing both the Sd.kfz 164 and the crew. Thanks again for all the hard work both your team and Egonzinc. Wish I could've met Adolf but unfortunately he passed away before I met my wife. I've been able to talk to both my grandfathers' and my parents uncles about their experience as well as two family friends who were children (one lived in London before being evacuated during the Battle of Britain and the other in Berlin during the last battle of the war). Lee, my father in law, has been able to tell me some stories that his father told him but as he explained 'there was a lot he didn't talk about either to me or mom'.

No matter what side of the war they were on they all carried the scars of that horrible war long after the guns fell silent.

Superb work, this is a beautiful piece. Excellent paint scheme and weathering, love the markings too. The Nashorn is really a nice vehicle, definitely a nice kit.
