You're a lean, mean, mini production machine!!

[chief5437]

Can't wait to see how this goes together. I've got dragons 1/72 jagdpanther waiting for the hunter GB. Be interesting to see how it compares to their 1/35 stuff.

[planemaker]

That came together fast! Awesome work so far, I would never dare to take of the parts of the sprues like that, but it looks like you have the parts under control.

[AchtungPanzer]

Well , I must watch this , you don't let us rest from your builds

Even I'm waiting for a 1/35 Tamiya to arrive at my hands , all way from Japan ...the new kit , so even this is a tiny one compared to the 1/35 , worth always watching another superb build in 1/72 , and seems a very nice kit also !

[Yevgeny]

I think you need a subforum man
Looking good as usual
