I,m calling this one done,:rolleyes:


it was a fun build, ;)


I know that harsh or very gritty weathering is not to ever ones liking,


but I,was just trying to show the brunt of war and maybe how it was,


some think like that, :D


well i hope that you do enjoy it ;)


and any comments most welcome,:rolleyes:

That's brilliant, Monica. The tank looks great, and I particularly like the added interest in the detail - the cigarette smoke, the cat. Up there with your best, I'd say.

Olga is a lovely girl - somewhat careworn, but still able to pack a punch! Not unlike my ex mother-in-law!


You really bring vibrancy & life into your dios Moni, as well as tons of detail & things to see :smiling3:


So now we've seen Olga, prepare to meet .... Boris! ;)

Lovely dio, it's a proper one too with things happening and it draws you in rather than a tank popped on a grassy or muddy base. The cigarette is a nice touch and the cat adds a bit of a humane/gentler side to the scene which is a nice contrast to the metal killer sorting next to it.

Hi Monica


Just viewed this over a good 20 mins and will be back for more views later.


You have undoubtedly got a bloody good eye for the detail and feeling of what war was really like.


In your dio you have shown the true nature of it. I especially like Olga and yes she's defiantly seen a lot of action but also it shows reliability of the tank. The crew are taking a well earnt break and the weathering on the figures ( well that's your forte eh ) I especially like the animation you have given to the crew with one petting the cat and another smoking while the rats look on at the food trying to get a nibble.


Awesome is not a strong enough word to describe your talent


( too much praise)


What's next from you or are you going to surprise us all


Great work


Regards

Mind you, we have all come to expect nothing less from the 'Monica Stable'


Great build.

Another stunning work Monica. So much detail, right down to the smoke. The tank is beaten up and well used, but not over done. Great job on the uniforms and figures and all their accessories. Love the cat, took me a while to find him :smiling3:

Very nicely done Moni.

Brilliant work once again. Cannot work out how you churn so many builds out- I only get 8-20 done per year- again, the time issues hinders me:mad:
