Seriously.....my modelling always misses time. More or less 1h a day.....not all the days. Think it took me more than 1 year 'til now !!

Quick update....someone did me notice the weight of the ammo box opened top would overturn the ammo itself when this is empty.....I know this is for mental only....but that's what we are a bottle from Meng inside could be the solution. And then.....what had to be movable still moves even after many paints' layers over....luckily

Guido, this build is phenomenal! This is another one I will return to again and again just to look at all of the delicious detail. You didn't miss a single thing that my eyes could spot. Thank you for posting such a huge number of photos of the work in progress.

Regards,

Eric

One more thing... are you planning to write an article on this model for a modeling magazine? If not, I would love to make it into a feature article for Armorama.

Sorry, I need to pick up my jaw from the floor...Seriously Guido, I think that goes beyond conventional modeling : You've created a piece of art...
So, will you bring it to Mosonmagyarovar ?

Stunning work all around.

You know, I wanted to build one of these complete with full interior and Legend conversion. I figured it would be a very interesting beast once finished. Seeing your model shows what a top-class modeler can do with it.. your Doher is one of the most impressive models I've seen in a while. Can't wait to see it in Moson.

Well done!

A long, long time without post here in Armorama. But I couldn't resist:

AWESOME, AMAZING, FANTASTIC etc.

Guido you're, for sure, one of the (if not THE one) most talented and gifted modellers I know.

Cheers mio amico!
