hi Andrzej! do you have any photos of the complete tank? these ww1 tanks have long been a favourite of mine (although i mainly model aircraft!) i have an emhar 1/72 mark IV in my stash along with an A7V kit. for a cardboard and resin kit i thought it was made from metal, exellent work, can't wait to see the finished article

Hi Andrzej
Great to see more pics of your masterpiece
A truly stunning piece of work , the detailing on the rivets , nuts and bolts plus the paint chipping and worn textures you have achieved is truly impressive
I look forward to seeing further progress

That is superb! I love the burnishing on the sponsons. The texture looks spot on. How long has it taken to build this beast?

What incredible work, Andy! WOW! It gets more amazing every time you post new pictures!
I do have some questions and a couple suggestions offered to the master ...
What did you use for rivets and bolts, etc... ?
One thing that you may wish to consider is the red-white-red identification marks that were used on the top of the driving cabin and, I believe, the rear turret. Also .. the name of the tank is "Barrhead" from the 2nd Battalion, Tank Corps. Barrhead also had the unditching rail mounted, so that's something you might wish to consider.

Hi Andy
The markings you need for "Barrhead" are on the decal sheet in the Interus Mark V Composite kit.
The ID stripes (white-red-white) markings are on the top of the driving compartment and across the top of the rear turret as well.
Your work is incredible!

Hey Andy,
This model would have to gow down as the most impressive work I have seen. EVER!
The close up photos are just fantastic. I had a hard time telling myself that it was a model I was looking at. I think a few photos in black and white would be really impressive!
