Or, they're just silently enawed by the work you've done.

Well mcevoyi....you've said.. others have said it...YOU SIR ARE A BUILDER

...not only is she well made...the little details are very impressive.. I especially like all the rivet work and the sprung fenders..not to mention the removable schurzen
Looks to be on a good time line for your July 6 Memorial build
Have you figured out a paint scheme ?
Have to say... been watching the progress...and she looks outstanding
Carpe Diem MM Mcevoyi

Thank you all that have commented !
The paint job.......i got one or two ideas ....i usually let the tank ' talk ' to me
But i have an idea for a variation on ambush scheme.....but with a green base colour ...lets see how she looks when i got all the undercoat done ...and go from there .... but that is some way off ....as i need to sit down with my soldering iron
And do all the welds ..... ohhh i love the smell of burning plastic !....

my newness is obvious , I saw paper tiger and thought, Oh he is building one out of paper/cardboard
Your skills are amazing, to turn a drawing into that WOW
It's a good looking tank , and the detail is fantastic, the turret is very well done..
Can't wait to see the finished product

You're not far off Mark.....as many times the scratch built tanks you see... are made with cardboard first... it's the best way to make templates ...of which I have to say...Mcevoyi... I want copies for this one
