xhelfix, batter up!

Very nice SU 122! Nice detailing on her. I especially like the portrait of "Papa Stalin" on it. Very creative! That's also a very nice collection of Russian armor.

Nice entry to get the ball the rolling.

Cheers,
Eric.

I agree with EAO, nice tank and stowage. Love the driver peeking out the front.

Sure is nice. I will shamelessly copy the portrait idea for my JS 2 project, it’s a nice touch!

lmcq11,

Nice job. I've always found the big Leopard to be my favorite "modern" tank. Not sure why, but to me there is still some WW2 German panzer lines to them. Probably just me though?

Yours looks very lifelike. I also like the "Afghanistan dust" making it look quite the part. That's quite the list of parts and add ons you've got there too. Nicely done!

Cheers,
Eric.

Thanks, you're not dreaming, it should have been called the Panther III

So I have looked at the tanks I was thinking of entering and I noticed a couple of things that has made me decide not to enter any. The first was the t34/76 but I had my kv1 as a back up. After checking them both on my t34 I have noticed that at some point when in transit for the shows I did last year I snapped the mg off and on the kv-1 I have forgot to install the back light, the third option would have been the su85, but that is on display at the local model shop

Exhibitedbrute,
Nice Pershing! I've always liked them. Sort of like a Sherman on steroids! Always found the turret lines attractive. And how can one not love that enormous cannon?

Very nice,
Eric.
