Yes, it took some time to do all the details but in the end it's all worth it even though quite a few swear-words could be heard in the neighborhood :-)

Sven,
Very nice work! Nice detail in such a small scale.
Is the 251 from DML? If so, I just completed the same kit and it was a nice little build. I'm assuming the M20 is from Italeri. What about the Sherman?
Thanks for posting your builds! I've got a couple of ideas for tweaking my 251 from your pics.

Thanks Frank!!!
Yes the Sherman and 251 is DML and the M20 is Italeri with some extras from Calibre 72 and ExtraTech. The Hetzer and the Gaz AAA Truck is from UM (UniModel)...
Glad you liked them!!!

Tjena Sven-Åke.!!!
You´re waaaay too modest, man :-) :-) :-) Armorama caters for all levels anyway.
Its great to see you here! I suggest you take some pics of the sherman and send it into the site for an "On Display" model. Add one pic with a paint jar/bottle for reference.
Hopefully you´ll be sending these to the Open!

Hi Frank!!!
Good the see you here too...
I thought I should expand my horizon a wee bit more and in the process learn even more about this hobby... I like the fact that the braillers have their own section here and since I'm stuck in small scale land I feel I could hang around here too...
Four of them are coming to the Open, all except the Gaz AAA Truck...
Thanks for encouraging me Frank!!!
Cheers!!!

Looking forward to seeing your models at the Open. Consider the "On Display" .... send me a private message (the link under this post) to me and I´ll explain how, if your interested! Thise are great models and are definately worthy.

Wow, I didn't realize these were 1/72. Good job on both the vehicles and the figs.

Wow those are amazing! I wouldn't have guessed they were 1/72 until you posted those last two pictures.
I can only hope one day I'll be that good.
