Outstanding, would you mind sharing with us what kits these are?

Superb zimmerit on the Wittman kitty, is it AM?

Beautiful work, can't wait for the finished product.

Very handsome cats you got there. Is that silvering on the tactical number of Wittman's tank or just the number piping? Anway, I hope to see the finished product soon....

Cheers

Nice Tiger that matey!

Was the camo done by free hand? The filter you applied blended them in nicely though.

Great job!

Amazing work Karl, absolutely amazing. I really like that dark look you always achieve on your camo.

Happy modeling to you too Karl.
