French Marder?

Album image #1
My first go at an oxide red interior, which I had to mix the colour for so it might be quite off. Even though this is a French tank (and had a green interior)the hull has undergone a major German renovation The interior was quite empty so I added some spares like an extinguisher, chair frame, driver levers and instruments, a wall mounted frame, drive shaft cover and some wiring. Later some oil stains and pigments were added.

The model is sort of coming together. This tank was sometimes fitted with a larger gun (I think), and this shows in the construction of the model. A few spare parts and no real way to mount the shielding around the gun mantlet to the actual gun assembly, and the instructions are not clear about this, so I will have to wing the positioning to the images I have. Whatever I do it won't be completely correct anyway. 
 

Album image #3
The upper superstucture was built seperately and painted with a ligher mix of Tamiya Dark yellow, and post shaded with an even lighter shade.
