Once again I thank you guys for all the tips that you leave in the forums.[:D] Please leave feedback and tell me how to improve![:)]

P.S. Sorry about the long load time[B)], but I wanted you guys to see the details![:D]

Good work abercasten! Welcome to the Dark Side! :slight_smile: Your initiation with this first piece of excellent work does you credit!

18

Great work, Abercasten!
You obviously have a solid foundation in model building. If this is your first armor kit, what have you been building up to now?

The darkside is strong with this one.

Excellent work!
The Pz II is the perfect first model. I had to look hard to offer suggestions, but if I had to make comments for improvement it would be:

  1. tone down the shovel a little so it isnt just silver
  2. tone down the decals a little so they are not so bright compared to the weathered look on the model
  3. add a base because the panzer doesnt look to fierce on the carpet :stuck_out_tongue:
  4. (optional) figures? :slight_smile:

Again, my comments are made after looking hard at your model, it looks sweet!

SO… WHATS NEXT? :slight_smile:
