To be really honest ... what more can be said? Nice one Ed, and very timely into the bargain. Hopefully you´ve started a trend that continues until we start seeing some new editions.
I have all the parts (almost possible) except for the wheels and tracks, and now TWS are coming out with new versions of theirs, so when I get my Panther for the meow campaign finished, Im gonna start mine immediately after that!

Excellent work, Ed. Nice details, the weathering and interior items are top notch. The .50s are well done. How about a nice figure or two and some groundwork?
Nice touch with the vice on the rear.
