Looks the part man. I want to build a couple of the trucks I drove when in the army but can't find them in 1.35 scale

That looks great Patrick! I reckon if you put that in a little dio you'd not be able to tell it wasn't the real thing. Had you thought of a base for it?:rolleyes:

Dougie, Tommy, Ray, Jim & Dave, many thanks chaps!


And Dave I did think about a base (can't imagine where that idea came from!) , but I've since sold the model!


But my Tiger is gonna have an awesome base! Awesome! :P

This is something inhavevrarely seen of late, the attention to detail is fantastic from the expressions on the figures to the chalk written graphitise on the turret


I even like the autumn type leaves on the intakes ( nice touch


Subtle weathering, also nice to note that the red oxide still remains on the internal structure like in true late Wehrmacht vehicles fashion.


Awesome build


Robert ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) 5 stars from me

Thanks John, figures are always the hardest thing to do, I still need lots of practice!
Erm, not much, you have made them so realistic by understated colours and authentic textures, for me, the textures and surfaces let down so many figures, leaving them looking like caricatures, also, the engine deck looks so convincing. great work!

You're right Michael, they should have had a little bit of a gloss or satin look - too late now, I sold that model ages ago!


Thank you for your kind words, figure painting is my bête noire!
