Thanks Dicky. I've seen a few 1/72 with aweful detail. But those may have been older kits. And I think there are a few contemporary manufacturers that are missing the mark for small scale detail. I'll get one sometime. Just have to keep my little guy from playing with it would be the hard part.
9mm engine!!!! You must have some fine tools and a large pile of patience.

Hello Fellas, Thanks for the awesome compliments. You guys are all very kind.  This was my 2nd 1/72 scale build, the first being a Tiger initial. I am likeing the scale better after the Panther build. The detail is really good considering the scale. My nephew recently built the 1/72nd King Tiger W/Zimmerit and its pretty darn good detail on the zimm in that scale. Heres a link to his KT Porsche. drmmtx.blogspot.com/Thanks Brother Craig!   Gary |
