11/10 ! This is one of my all time favorites ! Great use of color, tonal differences, perfect metallising, soft weathering !

John, this is just great stuff mate. I think it's the nicest model of a WWI tank I've ever seen, I especially liked the way you added dust and grime to the paintwork. I echo the guys btw: this beauty deserves a suitable base ^^
Cheers

Yup, this is aewsome. Weathering is very well done. I can only imagine what these early tanks would have gone through and I could see one looking like this.

That's very nice work . Love the weathering. Makes me want to pull my Mk.IV female out my stash and start building. Wait I have the female you have the male can we get them together and start breeding them? Steve

I missed some of this but the finished kit is outstanding from any view and like you I like the old vehicles but don't like resin which for the moment limits the selction. That isn't quite right I don't mind resin I hate CA glue.
