Enjoy viewing! [;)]

Nice job!! The zim looks real!

As always, good stuff!
Please tell “Art Instructor” he did a great job!

Did you really fork over $120 or more for the tiger kit???

Looks great. Now what was the price for that kit?

As always, a pleasure to see your work. Just curious, how many have you completed?

Where do you get that price from? Seen that kit in hobby shops for $90. You can find the kit , tracks and barrel online for $60 + shipping if you buy wisely.

Thanks a lot for all your kind compliments! I really appreciate them!

This kit was priced 6,800 Yen in Japan but 3,800 Baht ($ 95) in Thailand which is very expensive. Anyway, I got a special discount of 30% so I paid $ 66.5 only. [;)]

Fantastic work. The Warrior looks great and so does the Tiger.

Excellent. I took the pics for the railcars for reference. I don’t see too many builtup examples.
Looking forward to seeing the two Italeri SPG pieces in the next update.

Many thanks for your kind compliments, kaleu and zokissima!

I forgot to answer tigerman’s question about how many I have completed. Well, I completed a few hundred armors myself in the far past, but none of them is worth mentioning or showing.
It’s the work of “Art Instructor” (my most productive modeler) that’s interesting. He has completed some 300 armors and dioramas for me during the past 5-6 years (he also built a few planes and ships), as evidenced in the following list : [:)]
