That is something special to look at!
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!"..

The way you used the different figures by Tamiya is fantastic. The figure painting is incredible as well. Sincerely. This project honors its subject and its kit in all of the proper ways. My only note would be perhaps a little bit of dust on the aircraft. The netting really works to create an area that makes sense in terms of a diorama element. I feel though I have to ask... what do you think is not working? I think I am a pretty sharp observer and I do not see anything amiss. I see small tweaks but even those are extremely small.

(...)

Your work has the feel of the period down! Note I edited the size of your photos to full resolution. I will show you how. Basically you need to change "img" which is in brackets at the front and back of each image link to... "image." Also your uploader is adding additional information that has to be removed after uploading. This is very easy to delete.


(...)

The first part that begins with bracket followed by "url=" and ending with another bracket needs to be removed. Then at the end there is another bracket followed by "url" and ending with another bracket that needs to be removed.

So. . .

[url=a link to the hosting site which must be removed] [img which should be "image"] [https the picture link itself which must be kept.jpg] [img which should be "image"] and [url which must be removed]
Thanks for the photo posting directions Bruce. You are way to kind, I will say its not terrible but I just lost the fun of building after the third time painting. I I'm going to touch up around the base today where the ground cover had came up. I guess I didn't get any good shots of the landing gear, I dusted the tires and landing gear pretty good along with the underside. On top there is hardly any panel lines being mostly cloth but I dusted what was there, also being Rommel's I figured the ground crew wouldn't let it get down right filthy either he wouldn't stand for that lol.

Wow... that turned out GREAT, Clint! I love the dio and the meander camo came out very, very good in my opinion. A light mottle on a darker background is really tough to pull off but you did it well! Great work!

Thank you John, the next meander scheme will hopefully be better, but I'm not painting this one a fourth time lol
