Not meaning to be overly pickie, but I've seen better models. If you look closely between the defensive breastworks you can notice the stitches, I mean weld seams.....

Neil,
"You funny Dr. Jones!!!"

Tamiya's M4A3, Tiger I rank up there on my list.
Reason: So many AM kits, so little time. You can do just about anything with those two kits.

Nick,
People pay you to build models for them???? Where do I sign????

Brian, with all those excellent modelers out there.....Yea,I guess I've been real lucky do this enough to pay the bills........Or maybe it's because I had enough of nasty bosses, was pissed off, broke and desperate....NEVER to work for anyone again unless I choose to

It's amazing what you can achieve when you're your own biggest critic

Andy,

I looked and looked and looked again, studying the picture furiously and cannot see what you are referring to. I'll have have to look again.

Evan,

Clearly a posed picture. I'm surprised Ms. Hilton managed to put the specs on correctly, let alone get the book the right way around - had she seen one of those before posing for this picture?

These models look fragile, looks like their could be some fallout if abruptly jiggled.

Lars



Hey Lars,

is that the 75mm version or are the cannons bigger? They seem a bit out of scale, as if someone had meddled around with them. Possibly sabotage?

There appears to be some stenciling below the left equipment rack that I can't quite make out (partially obscured by the upper suspension arm). I'm guessing it could be the optimum pneumatic pressure maybe? Great markings option though, I wonder if we could get Archer to work up some transfer sheets.......



cheers,
Bob

ps - I'm sure those are aftermarket headlights......hahahaha

great bodywork, no seamlines, and fantastic decals, and no need for the aftermarket boys to bad it's way out of our price league

Denise Milani. She claims those are natural. They look too good to be fake
