  1. Hi Ian, Very good job with a model that has many flat parts and few details, the weathering makes it interesting to look at. Cheers Francis.πŸ‘
  2. Hi Angelo, Excellent Panther, that ambush camo looks great, and with that crew on top it is a nice set Good Job! Cheers Francis.πŸ‘
  3. Hi John, Many thanks for your like and kind words, i'm glad you like it, much appreciated mate, knowing also that German armor is not your favorite.😁. As they say, "better late than never"...no problem, lol. Well, if it has happened to you that you are always willing to have a few kind words with everything published, it is easy to understand how little feedback the model is receiving...πŸ˜•. Cheers FrancisπŸ‘
  4. Hi Safetypin, Many thanks for your kind comments, i'm glad you like it. Well yes, Tamiya stickers are highly recommended, after all they are Tamiya, a brand that does not usually disappoint. Even more so, taking into account in my case that the kit was from the MENG brand, and it was not exact for him, but for a Tamiya kit, even so, I was able to apply them without major adjustment problems (because it was another brand and my first time with something like this). The result is quite good, and you save a lot of work with putties for example. In any case, the relief, IMHO, is a little flat, I would have liked it to be more pronounced, that way the weathering would be more attractive. There is a brand of stickers that seems really good, A-TAK I think, although I don't know if it would be easy to get. Cheers Francis.πŸ‘
  5. Hi Nemanja, Many thanks for your like and kind comments, i'm glad you like it, much appreacited mate. Unfortunately the little talent I have, I think was spent on the models, I am a terrible figure painter.... Cheers Francis.πŸ‘
  6. It's a nice JP, a Tamiya classic, a good addition with the movie tracks and the commander figure. Cheers Francis.
  7. Hi Roberto, Many thanks for your follow and kind comment, i'm glad you like it. Cheers Francis.πŸ‘
  8. Unique Camo, it must have been very difficult on something so small. I remember the ESCI kits, with which I started making tanks when I was a child, and I don't know if you have ever gotten your hands on the ESCI Sherman Calliope, which in addition to being quite decent, had a transmission, floor, basket, some bits interiors, and...engine...incredible at that scale and at that time... Cheers Francis.πŸ‘
  9. Hi Andy, A classic, I never made one of these...lol. It is a very suggestive vehicle for a diorama, with a larger one next to it. Like the other, it is a good base to work on, but better, little by little, because I think something simpler is better than for the next process to ruin the previous work by not yet mastering the appropriate technique. Cheers Francis.πŸ‘
  10. Hi Andy, Personally I like your second take better, although cleaner, perhaps because it is a T34, "it has to be Soviet"..., a bit silly thought..., but such an iconic tank...well that... lol. It is a good base to work on, little by little, as you continue doing more, you will discover what works for you and what you like. Personally, I would start with the first process after the base coat, trying to master it, and then go to the next one, that is, step by step, without rushing. I don't know if I told you that I made one of these but from Eastern Express (published in the forum) and I used it as a guinea pig, I think I abused it a little, but it helped me a lot to learn techniques and test products, and I wouldn't do it again. do more. Cheers Francis.πŸ‘
  11. Hi Ed, Many thanks for your kind comments, i'm glad you like it, much appreacited mate. Cheers Francis.πŸ‘
  12. Hi Shagohod, a good job on an unusual subject, cool detail the inclusion of a motorcycle on the back. I remember making one of these in another life, obviously it didn't turn out so well. The tracks are those of the kit, or have you changed them, in the artbox photo, they are flat, and I think mine were like that too... Cheers Francis.πŸ‘
  13. Hi Stef, Superb job in all aspects, very well presented. I love the detail on the back scale and the figure, with with personality. Cheers Francis.πŸ‘
  14. Hi Cesar, Interesting work, I like the detail of the loose and fallen track. A very nice and colorful base, with some unique plants. It really was a large vehicle, its appearance is deceptive. Cheers Francis.πŸ‘
  15. Hi Tom, Many thanks for your kind comments, i'm glad you like it, much appreacited mate. When talking about favorite, do you mean the color?...in my case it would be green...of course...lol I still have another KT in my stash, with the indoor set, but I don't think I'll touch it for a long time (and it's been stored away for years...πŸ™„). Cheers Francis.πŸ‘
