Well, I have one major criticism.

This model should be in the Models Masterclass, not in 'show off' ;).

I will be the first to vote for you as soon as I figure out how it's done..

Excellent work!

I will say what I've allways said about these master modelers.If not for people like you,who share their skills without regard to their ego are the best in the hobby,this helps us of lesser skills to improve without the trail and error phase because you show the method so clearly,and you have my Thanks,and respect.Blake 1-saxondog

Again fantastic work! I did read the thread on the other forum, and some of the posts made me laugh. I used to be a member of a Star Trek game forum and you would get these guys who'd argue for days about features that did or didn't exist on fictional starships, and their posts just made me think of that.
Sod 'em, its an amazing model, incredibly well made and detailed, and who says everything we build has to be 100% historically accurate!  ;D
Cheers,

re Septons question about the turret construction...... this turret was originally scaled up from hilary doyles 1/72nd drawings in a publication many moons ago. originally i built this tank in about 1993 and it wasnt til i showed it to oz brian and chris at washington model club did i decide to overhaul it as my skills had improved some what since then. the result is what you see now. so i suppose this build was from 1993 to 2009!!! lol
