Good Morning, Herman,
I'm not sure if the Forum does the Master Class thing any more. If they do, Hotte's Panther G, Jeff1101's Panther G, Phil's Sherman, Tom's early Tiger 1, Tom's M51 here and several others come to mind. All would have my vote. ;o)
regards,
Painless

Master Class for sure.
Thoughts ?
I feel those who know they are good... don't need that kind of adoration... this build should be one of the first in a dedicated Sherman catagory...and Tom's Tunisian Tiger in a dedicated Tiger category
That way both can shine in the eyes of new comers who have the desire to do something new amongst others of course ...it would also provide a good platform for people who are in the market for a new tank...they can see all the different brands and also get a grasp of what is possible to do with them

Well if you are going to compare Canned.... and this is no diss to Toms excellent build...but if you are going to compare a build
How about Fred the French's Duplex

as a build it took way more skill... as everything including the skirts work.... the best thing...it's waterproof and can swim

I simply thought that to get a build into master class it had to be nominated...................those Duplexes also qualify.

Pros and Cons to the masterclass Herman...once a build goes there... there's no more replying to it....in a way... a build purgatory lol....so you can look at it...but no longer bring it into view...Personally it's kind of sad in a way... because premium builds really shouldn't be hidden away...I can think of a dozen or so more that could be nominated... but why freeze the thread

Seems I failed to actually order my lead foil.....this foolishness has now been rectified, hopefully will have the bits to complete this week. As an aside had her battling at the meet, she's rather good, having the IR emitter in the searchlight has worked wonders!

Yeah it kind of sucks when something looks good there...you can't ask questions or anything...not to mention many of the builds have been sanitized... this is better...that way say someone wants to look up Tom's build...just by replying to it ............it goes one your list of posts for future reference
