That's some great work. I especially love the Sherman. Where did you get the crew figures for it?

Excellent work,
I had to recheck the forum heading, to make sure I was reading Braille scale correctly.
How about sending in a bunch of photos to the editors for a nice ON Display. It would be nice seeing the smaller scales getting some front page billing.

A nice ON Display.



Thanks Dave!!!

I've been asked that earlier and I will do just that as soon as the
models come back to me. They have been at the Swedish IPMS
nationals in our capital city of Stockholm competing and the
Sherman took first place in the 1/72 Armor class Hard skins and
the Sd.Kfz 251D took first place in 1/72 Armor class Soft skins...

So as soon as they come home I will start taking some more
pictures of them and send in to the editors, that's a promise

Thank you very much

Regards

Sven-Åke

It's an object lesson as to just HOW good Braille-scale can be in the right hands.

Thanks so much Jim!!!

I'm really happy that so many of you guys like my work...

I've been away from the modelling scene for almost twenty
years so this is only my second year back in the saddle

I'm still learning and a place like this is really worth a lot for me.

Regards and respect!!!
