I have been off modelling for a few weeks but im on it again. This is my 4th update of my dio Attack and Retreat. now I done with the tank crew and I have done smoke on the Panther.
any comments are welcome.

The smoke looks great! Maybe a little more work on the faces on your figures though. Also highlight their hair. But besides that, everything looks awesome!

Interesting..... very interesting.......
Looks good so far......

Apart from the seam line on the travel lock chain I don't see anything that's wrong. The smoke,...interresting, it's a brave but very difficult subject. It doesn't do it for me yet, but hey, some people like clean tanks, others like mud encrusted tanks. I,m not sure it looks 'smokey' enough.

Other than that, looking good and can only get better.

Cheers

I like the figures, they are pretty cool. I'm going to say that the flesh doesn't come off very well because of the photos. They probably look better in person - at least that's my guess.
I like the asst. drives expression.

The smoke is a valient effort - it is the #2 hardest thing model, fire is #1. You're modeling a moving thing in static form.
Personally, the smoke is a bit stringy, in my opinion it needs more 'cotton' or poof. Ultimately if you like it - great. I do like the color you nailed that.
You may want to add a bit of soot (black pastels) to the engine deck.

Thanks


yes the lokk better in person.





The tank has just started to burn, i don't know if it should be more "smokey"

looks good I like the smoke looks like Don kings popped his head through the engine grills :-)

Too bad you couldn't figure a way to mount a flashing red or yellow lightbulb inside the engine compartment

i love the figure's jackets that you made, how they look just perfectly worn and used. wish i could achieve such a look one day
one small suggestion, that if the tank is smoking and there are wounded men stumbling away from it, then chances are that the tank has been through hell too. although the scratches are good, i suggest more mud and rust. although it is something that every modeller does it never ceases looking good.

Looks good. I agree with the jackets-perfect appearance. The hair on the figures does looks too uniform.

The smoke looks great-nice job. The one think I have thought of is putting a little bit of red near the very bottom of the smoke-at the grills-like fire licking its way out-I have never worked on smoke myself (attempted once-failed misserably) but I think it may add to the idea of "just began to burn." Either way-Great Job.

Yes I have been thinking to install a lightbulb.
