Pzkpfw IV Ausf. D #1 / Assembly & Basic Painting /

Panzer IV, the major "workhorse" of  the Wehrmacht, served at all fronts of Second World War in many different roles. It is extremely wide subject for any modeler, with plenty variants to pick from: short or long barreled guns, early, late or African versions, with extra armor etc. This model is to represent blitzkrieg campaign unit during first week of September 1939 (operation also known as Fall Weiss/Plan White). I've picked a unit from 3rd Army, 1st Army Corps, stationed in East Prussia, moving south, fighting against Polish Army Modlin, through Mlawa city, towards capital of Poland - Warsaw.
