It pleases me hugely, Andrzej Bigtank!


If you hadn't already told me it was a model, I'd think it was real from some of those photos (especially the first one)! Big congratulations for Bigtank!

Andrzej!


This is, quite simply, some of the best modelling I have ever seen. Ever!


Some photos looks like they were taken of a real tank scale 1:1!


Andrzej rules!

Wonderful work. The closeup of the sponson door (the first shot) especially strikes me as looking like it's made of cut sheet-steel. (How DID you do those viewing slots?)

Hello :)


I thank for acknowledgement , but this really the nothing of importance , despite that I had with records the problem , so the model does not it be finish yet .. I have the most problem from sticking rivets and screws , and now at work over superstructure ...Cracks are thin because model he be made from thin cardboard . I glue underneath fat cardboard all , leaving store on crack then :) . Doors be cast from resin they - are thin and therefore the effect of not very fat sheet metal is ...


I ask - here several different pictures from close - this will be yet corrected obviously , I will add the a bit rust of , more mud , etc ...


Best regards - Andrzej


PS


I hope that my English is comprehensible ...:)

Your English is much better than my Polish. That is an excellent model, Andrzej. You outdo yourself with each model.

Don't overdo the weathering. I think it is perfect right now. Remember that the tanks were well kept. They were used in combat for a day or two, then pulled out, washed, repaired, maintained. They were never used for long marches over the land. They could be very dirty, yes, after a days fighting in the mud, but that look was not the rule.


And my main argument: we all want to see as much as possible of your AMAZING model!


All the best

Probably true of the Western Front but in other later theatres (Russia, Silesia etc) the tanks would be transported considerable distances by train (and often not sheeted up). They would suffer paint abraisions from dust and possibly some rust. Loading them on and off at flash points (as happened with the British force in Silesia) could also result in scrapes and scratches. However they would not be mud encrusted and I'd join with Peter in pleading - don't cover up the detail.

Send me an e mail and I'll send some scans of drawings (I don't want to start posting what may be copyright). You don't actually need to put the 'horrible' vent on your model as these were only fitted to late production Mk Vs
