Gentlemen,

I went with this model (together with a couple of others -- please see below) to Bulgaria's Scale Models Club exhibition in early October -- this happened to be the biggest scale models event on the Balkans (in terms of number of models) so far I think.

Got the GOLD in the Tracked Vehicles in 1/35 -- sheer luck if you ask me -- then again, I'll always take a handful of luck over a truckload of intelligence

Here are two pictures of how the model appeared there, taken in better lighting setup than what I usually get at home:





And here are the rest of the entries I took with me -- you most likely know them anyway from other posts in the Constructive Feedback section







Overall, there's so much more I'd like to do with these models, but I think the time has come to leave them aside as they are. Time to move on to new adventures in styrene

As always, thanks a lot for your time and attention! Have a very nice day from me

Ivan

P.S.: I hope the Moderators will excuse me for the (kind of) double post.

Sir Those are some Outstanding builds Congratulations on getting the Gold.

I really like the Stug. Well done. Keep up the great work.

Cheers,

Congrats on the gold! The amount of luck was probably very limited as far as this decision is concerned:) Without having the seen the competition, your build deserves the highest rank, hands-down.

Can we have a close-up of the lower hull, were the tire was "blown away"? Thanks!

congrats sir.. Well deserved
