Dito!
One remark though- this is one of the tanks recovered from fixed position on the southern Bulgarian border.

A really nice build with excellent weathering. I liked the attention to detail as shown by the small gear attached to the turret ring and the gutted interior. Really a remarkable wreck. I'm going to save a couple of the pics as inspiration on my own build.

Excellent work Piet, a really evocative wreck beautifully painted. I’d go further and say it deserves a better base or something else to “set it off” – even a couple of kids playing on it? Also, I know how hard it is to get decent photos through hatches, it takes a lot of fiddling with the light source coming through one hatch while you shoot through another at extreme macro, but this is SO good I think it’s worth trying. Bravo
