Tamiya SturmTiger restart and now........... Finished .

[deafpanzer]

I LOVE IT! I want to marry it but i am not too keen about the idea of having you as my father in law. Maybe we can get along?

Everything look AWESOME especially the interior... now go and find a GI figure so you can place him inside the barrel just like this one.



LOL

Looking forward to your next masterpiece of work...

[bullardino]

Stunning result, Carl. You left me breathless.

And, of course, any new project you will start, I'll be there

[Marcel du Long]

Very nice & inspiring!

Marcel.

Freakin Outstanding Carl!!! Gawd that thing is stunning! That thing belongs on a Magazine cover and feature article. Well done brotha!

[tonylee-Rest In Peace]

Carl FSM looks for quality just like that for their readers,you might send them photos and get a nibble on it.

Of coarse if you're as humble and shy as I am you wouldn't think of doing that now would you?

Excellent artwork my friend just excellent

Most excellent result, Carl! A Sturmtiger everyone would love to have in his display case.

How you did the mix of small and long scrapes on the sidewalls of the casemate is what I like most. Makes for a very real appearance and gives that impression of heavy steel so well.

Cheers,
Tobi

This is a Mona Lisa Sturmy !!! Man o man o man ... o man !!!!! My BIGGEST congrats bro Carl !

[wbill76]

A real pleasure to watch this one come together from start to finish Carl. Definitely your best work to date and that's saying something all by itself! Really glad you left the casemate able to be popped off to show all that wonderful interior detail.

Wow!

I think the lads have covered it - there's nothing more I can add!

This is amazingly brilliant! It has to be well up among the best of the best 1/35 scale AFV models I've ever clapped eye's on.

Very well done - when I grow up I want to build models like this!

Top job,

Ben

Ben , thank ye !

Los , thanks for the sweet comments .

Deano , always a pleasure .

[thug626]

Carl, That is a magnificent build. The "Pop Top" was a great idea, as it would be a shame to hide all of that outstanding work that went into the interior.

Dave

[Deleted]

Thanks for that Dave . Tamiya made it easy to leave open as the fit is a good one .

[Deleted]

Seriously superb Carl old chap, I've said it before mate this this stuff should be in a magazine, your attention to detail and painting is an inspiration!

[Deleted]

Pete thanks my friend . I'm giving the magazine suggestion a go .
