Great work space indeed!
Which i could create a man cave like that. . But i live in a apartment on the 8th floor so i don't have the space for that. I work in the living room on the dinner table and have to clean up all my stuff when done building, but he. .. it works, and my wife let me sit in the living room. .. :mrgreen:

Great looking Marder Carlos, I'm still working on detailing my MarderIII...

:cheers2:

Carlos, I would love to be your sidekick in a buddy build of Ferdinand :-) just maybe at some stage toward late spring/summer ? Which kit exactly do you have? I think for me to get most satisfaction out of it I need to do couple of different model after the Elefant, cause well they are a bit similar :-)

But I would totally love to do a buddy build with you man!

Thanks Frans!

Don't worry my friend, your work shows perfectly that the workshop doesn't make the modeler, in fact I admire even more the work you do, in light that you work under less than ideal conditions. :bow::

Maybe I'm just lucky to have such space and I'm grateful for that as well. I live alone so that makes it easier to have this space in my apartment.
I've had such spaces in all the a places i lived ever since I left my parents house, the reason being that if I can't paint or work on my hobbies I really get depressed, I seem to have a need to create stuff. :roll:

Your Marder... geeeezzz it's so awesome, such a great and detailed build, you are a master builder, your PE work is just so gooooood. :bow::

Mine is now stationary, I'm really thinking about starting to make some videos and be a part of the youtube modeling community, I really love to watch all the videos from everyone, yours included. So I'm working up the nerve to do so, but I'm a shy person and I know I'll be pretty nervous... I still have second thoughts about that. :shifty:

Cool Vilius, of course I can wait, I totally understand what you're saying, I wouldn't want to build another Marder for the next build! In fact I usually make easier, cheaper models in between long projects, I find that renews my modeling juices. :boom:

The model of the Ferdinand I have is this:

Cool !!! I have Dragon Kursk 1943 premium edition too (number 6495), I think it is 2012 release, or re boxing :-) with some bits thrown in, looks sweet sweet model inside. So absolutely, if you don't mind waiting I would love to give it go side by side with you.

Thanks so much Shane! :cheers2:

I've put this build in the back burner, I'm going to focus on the D-Day and Steel Rain builds for now.
