anyway matt its simply great and you shouldbe proud of you work

No Alex it's not the Balkenkruz it is much worst beleive me ... when you get people like Mario Eans, Kristof, Plaskitt and Sven getting a Commended, Staf just a Bronze and Hugo Lyten nothing necause his whole Pig was covered with accessories [God nows how many other topbrass got the same penalties] ... having a T34/85 by Wilder sent to Scratchbuilt Class because he just added TOMA shields by Aber and a Panther wheel I think it makes you wonder.

Then the classic was the famous 1/72 amphibous Jeep, which a diecast from the shelf would look more weathered and better and gets a GOLD in class 13!!!!!!

I have put my comment down in the FINISHED MODELS section but i will repeat that i think you did an exquisite job and it looks really great, both the paintwork and the way you presented it. I love the very busy rear end which makes the tank look really businesslike. I will echo Joseph's remark here though, i do not like tanks presented on a clean polished wooden board but prefer a piece of ground or terrain, but that is up to you, the tank is top notch.

Yes Dottore I agre it's one of your best.........

Excellent!

You have set your modelling skills to a high level with this one!
