Hi guys,
Did some more work on the Matilda, and unless any if you have some comments or advice on its current state, I think I'm gonna call this one finished.
Let me know what you think or what can still be improved, or what's wrong, or anything for that matter. :-)
Thanks for looking.
Dave

Hello Dave,
Hey man, you got to give yourself more credit my friend. Your a damn fine model builder, and your Matilda is pretty bad ass IMO. Its not easy to do that much weathering and not muck it up or make it look completely unrealistic. Once again IMO, it looks to me like it just came through a hard fought battle with some DAK Panzers. If thats what you were going for, you nailed it Dave!!! Well done.

Hi Dave !
It is a fantastic work ! I started to use pigments and others technics this week and they really make the model more realistic.
Your Matilda is stuning !
