yes, it’s the tamiya kit… i decided on the french build because my mom group up in paris during world war II and lived on a street called PASSY which is on one of the decals… NOTE THE WINE BOTTLES! hahaha

joe, thanx… i got that figured out but couldn’t figure out how to make the thumbnails expand when i click on them…

10

if the pics are larger they should expand. when i copied your addy for the pic all i got was the small pic.

the problem with the pic size is with www.fotopic.com. This is the one thing I have yet to figure out. The only place they give you a viable address to insert images is the thumbnails (the large one’s do not have jpeg in the address, so you can’t link them). That’s why they are so small. To get a round it, I usually include a hyperlink to the gallery itself, which allows other to go directly to the site and see them full size

[:D] hi,great looking kit,what did you use for the rocks on the street?

Nice touches on the stowage and base! All that and it’s got some personal history to boot.

I’ve always liked the M-8 and yours is no exception. The weathering is apt and you did a good job. Thanks for sharing.

Good job! I’m in the process of building the M8 myself.Mine will be the 2nd. Armored Division. If I can figure out how to post them, hopefully you’ll take a look. Again, good job. I like the wine bottles(hic)!
