Thank you Greg and Jeremy!
Well, i'm rapping this up and entering the model into the DMOM comp. of April! Wish me luck! I've also submitted this beauty to http://www.track48.com
This felt like a quick build. It wasn't easy or hard. I only hated fitting on the back. 8.5/10 from me for this model.








Even a little golden plaque to go on it.

The detail!

The stars ymy biggest disgrace on this model. Not even nail varnish would make it stick so I had to hand paint it.

My faovrite part because of the mud.

Planes are BIG AND HUGE compared to tanks

GL and GOOD BUILDING! Thank you for all the comments!

LOL indeed they are
I really like how this came out overall, the shape/texture of the the clay around the edges just seems a little weird to me. I really wish that Tamiya's 1/48 MM line had positionable suspension...

Thanks Jeremy. The texture around the edges is probably my fault of painting the board after letting the clay set. I remember Tamiya did release their first workable suspension on the 1/35 pershing that came out after the 1/48 one!

Hey Greg, any idea why my pics might not be going through on track48? do I have to wait a while? I just hope my email got through. It didn't the first time and they haven't replied since.
