Another stunning work from Bill's factory!!! Weathering around the tracks and wheels look great! It is completed just in time so you can start your new build during the holidays. Of course I have to ask what will be the next victim...

wow that looks fantastic Bill. I love the earth effects. It really stands out against the w/w, but not too much.

As always a beautiful job, endless eye appeal here. I like in particular the way you've done the dirt/mud thing against the WW, convincing and visible yet subtle at the same time. 10+
Regards,
Mark

Thanks guys, appreciate the comments! For the curious, the next victim arrived courtesy of the Black Friday sales a couple of days ago and is waiting patiently on deck for its turn during the month of December.  |

Wow, nice one Bill. I'll follow very interested, that awkward tank was absolutely useless, yet very fascinating |

Thanks Tony! The Neubau will probably take a little bit longer...it's got more turrets! Luigi have to agree with you there...the 'land ship' style of designs that were popular in the '30s in terms of multi-turreted designs probably sounded great on paper but not so good in actual combat situations. Heavy and slow, lightly armored, etc. are not exactly redeeming qualities! Between these and the tankette designs, you often have to wonder what some of the designers were thinking when they came up with them. |

Thanks Gary! I never thought I'd see the day when a Neubau was available in styrene so when it was announced I had to wait patiently for the prices to come down to reasonable levels before snagging one. The stars aligned this sale season and I'm looking forward to it. I've already started looking through the box and was surprised that it doesn't really have that many parts, mostly because there's zero interior provided for any of the turrets and the tracks alone account for ~260 of the 'over 530' parts attributed on the box top. |
