If there were any problems with this one then I sure can't see where Glenn. Very well put together man. Eyes are one of those problematic areas of figure painting from my understanding and I see what you're saying. Marty Feldmann eys....

[lyle]

That is just awesome. I’m sure there is a tank under there. Somewhere.

I don't know...I kind of like Marty Feldman, I thought his hump was on the other side though!! Great work again with this one. I absolutely love all the stuff you put into these builds.

[stikpusher]

Excellent work! What do you use for your foliage camouflage, and where do you get it?

[cheyenne]

Thanks Carlos .
The foliage is actually 15 - 20 years old Hudson and Allen pine boughs , no longer in production .
I'm not sure but asparagas fern ?

[Green KreationZ]

This build looks alive. Really stunning work!

[garybrantley]

Man, what a model tank!  😁 That looks fantastic; and the stowage and the figures just bring so much to the build.   That's some superlative scale modeling, Glenn! 🤩

A number of years ago I did one of these kits; I must agree it was a fight to get it assmembled. I recall alot of file work amongst other things that should have not been necessary, but they do look pretty good at the end.

You've surely made a fine job of this one

[cheyenne]

Reserve , thanks man , the most annoying was the rear bottom engine doors , almost a eighth of an inch too big , side to side .

[handiabled]

I love the extra detail added! Your paintwork has such a soft natural look to it it really brings this to life

[Steve Zuleski]

Pretty bueno build, Glenn, Ruck On!

I thought that is what those might be. I have some left in my stash as well, but was hoping you had found a new source for the stuff.

[cheyenne]

Carlos , I've got two packages and one opened package , they've got to be at least 15 - 20 years old .
These are like gold ingots to me .
No , I haven't been able to source them from anywhere else and I need more for projects I'm doing .
So far I've been using them for vehicle camo , they can easily be used for scratching trees but I need a lot more .

Great work on this Glenn! Very realistic looking.

[stikpusher]

Yeah, I bought my package back in the late 90's, and never saw them again in any of the shops that I frequent. I still have most of it, and used them for the same purpose on a few builds, but the stuff dries out over time on the shelf once out of the package. The closest thing that I have found is some railroad foliage, but those don't look right for pine boughs. Ah well...

[deafpanzer]

WOW! This is my kind of build that I really like... armor, stowage, figures and stuff!! I think it is one of my favorites of your work! It amazes me how the colors changes when you take the pictures and the outdoor pics looked best in my opinion.

[brandonk]

Exceptional!! Not any adequate words to add that haven't already been said.

[M1Carbine]

Cheyenne - WOW, now that's how you load up an M5A1. Excellent job my friend. Love it!
