Jacek-- your workmanship is awesome! The model looks more like an actual vehicle than the actual vehicle. Incredible PE.
Very well done

This is EXACTLY why my modelling entails so much PE- It's WELL WORTH the extra effort, EVERY TIME!!!

KUDOS to Jacek for his OUTSTANDING EFFORTS, AND for demonstrating just how wonderful PE REALLY IS!!!

EXCELLENT WORK, JACEK!!!

Where did you pick up that ammo set for the 50cal? It looks really good!

Jacek, one thing about your .50 cal ammo. You have the links too far back on the rounds. The forward end of the links are almost right up against the bullet where the casing tapers down to the smaller diameter. You can see in the photo that one end of the link is smaller than the other end.

Regards,

Eric

Jacek, I really do not know if there is more than one type. All of the belted .50 cal ammo I've seen in person is done this way. Message me your email and I'll Send you a photo I just took of the links for 50, 30 and 223 caliber ammo links.

Regards,

Eric
