Funny coincidence . . . right after my last post I went outside to smoke and an Italian-looking guy with sunglasses pulled up in front of my apartment. He just sat there and talked with the passenger. Hmm. Coincidence??? I think not! :shock:

But I have to admire the speed with which the Sicilian assassin arrived here. ;)

'Fug git about it" Pay no attention to the man behind the bush.

Stik, amazing how quickly you work and with such quality. I bow to your mastery.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Yes, it's especially impressive when you consider he's probably got five other builds going right now, working full time, posting here, there, and everywhere, and arranging mafia hits all at the same time!

Quickly? Hah I finish one quick kit a year on weekend madness... otherwise my projects take months...
BTW, I finished the third crew figure for photos on Monday or so...

All those are from MiniArt?

They fit your build so perfectly. In my next life I have to learn how to paint figures...

Yes, those figures are all from the Miniart Italian Tank Crew figure set. Some great posed figures there I might add. Although only one or two will go with this build.

I love the poses! I'm really getting more and more impressed with Miniart. Almost like they're taking the non-traditional resin figure poses, but making them in an affordable styrene.

I may have to add a few to my "Frankenstein" box..... 8-)
