Thanks!

I haven't commented before about Frank's 1:48 scale armor submissions - but I like them! A breath of fresh air and very nicely done.

I know what you mean Jim. The paint jobs he imparts to his models are like a signature......you know it's Frank! He makes them look so good I just might have to have a go in this scale! (Get more on my shelves anyway!) :-)

That is a great looking Panther Frank you do amazing camo I hope mine turns out that well

nice camouflage and weathering. it makes me want to try and build a 48th scale tank. i haven't got any and my display were all in a 35th scale. got to set a space for the 48th series. thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the kind words,..... As long as you don't get tired of them, I'll keep submitting them.

looking real nice.......

Hello,
Wonderful job there Clanky44!. That is an absolutely flawless paint job! I really like the faded look too it, makes it look very realistic. I would have sworn it was 1/35 scale if I hadn't been told otherwise. I think you did a great job there. Hope to see more of your work, you are truly an artist!

Best Wishes,
Walter

Simply amazing camo and photo job.....
Keep on posting your models please !

A step to step set of pics would be heaven for a new beginner like me !

Congratulation once again !

That has to be one of the best paint jobs I have seen in a while and I don't impress easy. Hard masking that in that scale gives me the shakes just thinking about.
Fine job and thanks for sharing.
