Hi ropeynz,
Very nice work. I think you captured it very well. The photos with the old man reflecting brought shivers which means you must have done a good job.
Any info behind the memorial?
Cheers, John

Thanks for the info Marcin. It truly is a befitting momument. Pity some people decided to desecrate it by stealing the eagle and scorpions from it.
ropeynz has done it justice. Awsome work all round.
Cheers, John

Ropeynz, very well done.Thought provoking and haunting at the same time. Makes you wonder why we still use force instead of brains, but I guess that's the bane of humanity. The plaques came out real nice, how did you do them?

SimonT is to be thanked for the plaques. He made masters and cast them in resin for me - they came out brilliantly I thought. He's rather clever.

Very nice indeed. Your vignette captures the actual moment very well. I like the rust you did on the tank very cool.
