The design is fantastic Very unique. The colors and tones set off the design elements wonderfullly. This is a great example of how color and composition make a piece very 'explosive' and 'alive'

Well done! The shading is subtle yet defines the structure... Exactly the way to do it. Your friend is accomplished.

Carlos, looks a treat!
What is the actual function of the building, on account of its small size?

Carlos,
Yet another excellent piece .I will keep an eye on VLS for the release date of this one too . Ideal for the corner of a diorama . Any idea of its sales description ?

Love Jenny

Excellent design, and paint job as well. I agree that it could be quite versatile and would fit a variety of time periods.


You will find working with Bob Letterman and the VLS crew to be wonderful... Bob himself is an excellent modeler and truly appreciates user contributions and design!

How about an article on how you created the master, and submitted it to Bob?

BTW - don't forget to consider ScaleMilitary.com for distrubution of new kits in the future... we also sell kits designed by others!

Excellent work Carlos, y'know, it looks like it can almost be used in a cemetary scene, almost looks like some sort of moseleum, most cool!
