Hi All,

Very nice all round Steve, great job. It looks like a bigger scale than it is. Is that the Revell kit?

Hi Matt,
Thanks for that. Yes, its the Revell kit with the Black Dog resin turret and scratchbuilt Finnish stowage box and details.

Steve,

You've done a fine job on this interesting subject and thanks for sharing this with this forum. The colours, tone and subtle weathering are very effective and attractive. Hope to see you posting here on a more regular basis.

Cheers,
Jan

Excellent work!It almost looks like a 1/35 scale kit. This inspires me to do more in 1/72 scale.

Very nice work Steve. I was wondering what technique you used to get the straight edges on your splinter camo and what figure did you use? He certainly looks like a Finnish tanker.
