Good call on adding that piece Johnny as it gave it an added level of depth the deck area.

Now this is frickin' WAY cool Fabrizio. I don't think I've ever seen this kit, let alone a build of it. Will be watching this one for SURE!!

WOW!! You sure know your way around armor scale modeling LIN. Everything from prep to final bits just looks fantastic!! VERY well built, painted and weathered up buddy.

That's a good turn out on that Steel Cat and you've got a good amount of weathering on there Keith. Such a beast and like Jim said.......had to be an intimidating force on any battle scene.

That's my bad Kyle. Still.......you spurred me on.

I'll be looking forward to seeing this one progress Johnny. I built this same kit as a kid.

I've already spent some money on gun trucks after watching Warren here and Kyle (ksnow) building theirs. Cool rides for sure.

Sounds like you've got a good plan in moving forward. Plus....when the extra parts show up you'll have spares.

LOL!! I know the feeling.......I've got three stalled builds myself. lol

I'm always down for a good 109 build and Tamiya has a good kit available for the G-6 version Dave.

I've been on this one pretty much every day since the last update and am making some decent progress in the construction phase. Sanded the texture a little with 1200 grit sandpaper and have added some things to the hull. I did discover/ experience what a lot of armor guys have been talking about with all the road wheels on German armor. Pretty tedious stuff but we're getting through it. So far so good.

That's a pretty clean OOB build James. Great efforts put forth on it and some fantastic results on a trying kit.

Those quad guns look so frickin' cool it outta be a crime. I spent a LOT of time in Deuce's so I've already got a love for them. Looking forward to this one bud.

Jeez......you've had your fair share of issues with this build already BUT.......looks like you are on the road to victory with it Warren. Such a cool build thread.

Now THAT'S one good-looking paint and subtle weathering job on your Sherman Keith. You've captured the look of a well-worn color coat very well. You can't go wrong with a Tamiya kit either. Good work.

Good job on this one Dave! Airfix has really upped their game in the past 10 years or so with their aircraft kits. I had a 1/48 Bf109E-4 in my stash at one point and that was a GREAT looking kit right OOB. I should've kept that one.

Glad to have you on board Keith

I'll be all over this build like a "rat on a cheeto"! Looking very much forward to seeing this build in action Warren.

Thank you for taggin' along Bruce. Careful now with the 50 years stuff......you're dating yourself. lol

She'll be going on here if you want to check it out Keith. Tamiya Panther Type G It'd be good to have you in there.

Thank you for the "good word" Tim. Gonna give this thing my best shot. Managed to stiple on the texture on all sides of the tank body and turret over the last couple of days. Just gotta hit it with some 1000 grit sandpaper to blend it all in a tad bit.

Thank you all Keith, Alan, Larry, Carl, Tim, Bruce and Lee. Really appreciate the encouraging feedback. Now......we're off to the Panther Type G. My first ever armor build. Wish me luck. lol

Good LORD man!! I missed this one for SURE! I mean........everywhere you look there's just more and more details to see in this whole layout. This is some very exceptional modeling in this scale Jon. My hat goes off to you for pulling off such a masterful creation bud. WOW!!

Those are both great builds and in such small scale at that. One of the things that stops me from building a Phantom is the fact that there is LOTS of decal work to do on these aircraft and you've done an exceptional job at that on both of these and they look GREAT Jim.

This is indeed a good looking build Bruce. I'd be interesting in seeing how you pulled the heated effects off on those pipes. Looks great man.
