Good job!

[:D]looks pretty good to me.good work.[:D]

Wow, looks like really good work.
You and your father did a really good job.
[:)]

Ya’ll did a great job!! That kit looks like it comes with a bunch of detail . I like the troops wearing " knee-knockers ". Looks like a good job getting the skin tone right.

nice job… like the scene and the layout. great all around.

Nice stuff… I just love that old tamiya kit.

Thanks for all your comments guys.

Good job! You’ve done a pretty nice job of capturing the desert environment, and the vehicle and figures are well done. Thanks for the peek. Semper Fi, Mike

good job, thanks for sharing, you and your dad made a good dio.

Good job-but do think about using Model Railroad rock molds for in-scale roacks and forget lichen just head into the backyard or woods (or the pantry)-for more realistic, and cheaper stuff. But you’ve do very well the groundworks are sometime the hardest-keep em simple.

Dan

not bad man. good job! thnx for posting it up

Thanks guys for the comments.

Very nice!![bow] That’s way cool you and your Dad share the hobby(Or should I say obsession…Oh ya, that’s me!!) Thanks for the look!!

not bad man… umm not to be a party pooper, buuuttt… here are some ideas to look at when you’re building your next tank. Think of the environment that the tank is in, especially for weathering. Yes, tracks do get a touch rusty, but not so much in the desert where there isn’t really alot of moisture to be had! I like how you made the Pnzr II shown in it’s Infantry support role with the troops running along! This is the Tamiya kit right? looks familiar. That’s really the only thing, except for figures, I saw on the commanders head some flash, or mold lines… try to scrape that off, or file it off, it helps with the realism. You and your dad should be proud though man… it’s a great start, and with what you’ve shown us, you’re well on your way to becomming a great modeller!! DON"T give up, it looks great!

Most Awesome!

Thanks CDNtanker and PatNick.
CDNtanker- Your not a party pooper. I asked for some criticism and you gave it. Im glad you did because now I can learn and do better thanks.
Oh and the rust wasnt really meant to be rust is was meant to be sand. My dad goes to egypt andKuwait often and he says in the desert sand gets everywhere so we tryed to put sand in the running gear.

nice truly reflex the africa corps spirit …

Thanks!
