As we are amongst friends we can pretend that the short 50mm is really a 37mm "Door Stopper" and drive across Poland (1939) and into France (1940) before entering Russia (1941-42):
Compared to the later war tanks the "length" of the barrel does not impress, but at least it can fire a decent enough HE charge to knock out infantry strong points (MG bunkers) and exposed anti-tank gunners.
Note to self: Painting recap Tamiya XF63 German Grey, with successive amounts of Tamiya NXF-53 Neutral Grey, leading to a final thin highlight on leading edges of XF-53 with a "touch" of Anita's Acrylic Cream to whiten it up.(As seen in the side-shot below):
Crying out for some decals and clutter, but that can come later!
HaT Panzer III Ausf G catwalk over, next stop the "medium company" of the early war Panzer Division's battalions ;)

Even more great progress. You are on bit of a roll.
Cheers Paul,
Strangely enough the key to success seems to be me being "really busy at work". Coming home from a "dog" of a day, get some food and the kids to bed then winding down with a between half and an hour of painting.
Hopefully the pattern will break soon as I do have other things to do in the run up to Xmas ;)
But a pleasant side-effect is the progress on the 1940's German kit :)
I am getting a little "German Grey" blind though, craving for Greens and Sand, or even those colourful Renaissance chaps ;)
