Red Five Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 I struggled to find a creative way to display the interior of this one. Then i thought why not make 2 dios in one (well 3 😁) so half is portrayed how it would potentially look back in 1918 and half in how it would look preserved as a museum exibit. Its a great kit, a long one so i broke it up with other builds but if youve got the will to tackle it id highly recommend it. 47 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrancisGL Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Hi RedFive, It is a magnificent job! Everything is very well done. I love figures, (my black beast ...), and the idea is very intelligent, because you see the best of two worlds, something similar to what I have done with some of my models (T35 and "Chaffy"), for one side side skirts, on the other nothing ... By the way, the "little one", where did it come from ... lol Cheers and TC Francis.👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom W. Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Great idea to cut up a section of the tank and show the interior. Execution of the model itself, the figures and the environment is masterful as usual. Once again I am impressed by your skills. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Great Escape Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Stunning! The little details make all the difference. The Do Not Touch sign and the billboard information is wonderful - I’m sure the billboard is exactly how it appears at Bovington! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnT Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 Love the ideas here and my favourite touches are the tiny tank display model on the museum side along with the usual do not touch/enter sign. It’s a reminder that what we are in museums had a life of their own and a story to pass on. I don’t care how long it took you - the end result was worth every second and drop of sweat. That has to be prize winning. Bravo 👏 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
