Excellent work my friend!

I feel impressed by the gun size! ... it´s huge! The figures is the real nice touch,

Regarding the pz IV, I particulary love the subtle weathering all over the vehicle. The camo is really nice. Good election!

Hi MM,

Impressive field gun (the crew was an awesome addition!) and a cool Panzer IV: very nice combo there! As Jose Luiz said, the Panzer's weathering is a fine job.

I just feel that by having an "art instructor" build the kit for you, you're missing the bestt part of modeling...

Cheers!

Jose - Thank you so much for your kind compliments! The figures are old build, I used them so as to tell the gun's size. The Pz.IV camo is the same with the boxart, an easy selection.

James, there's another gun, same frame but different caliber. Pick up one each then, both are Trumpeter's.

Lately I've got another gun, a 10cm Morser 18 from Dragon with big wheels like this.

Fernao, Many thanks for your kind comments!

If you mean the fun part is in the building process, then I've had them all. I've built almost anything from 1:72/1:76 tanks of Esci/Matchbox to 1:350 Yamato, but most results were poor since I don't have artistic expertise. I don't like the smell of glue and paints and I don't miss them (it's good that I miss them, for cigarettes alone is already hazardous to my health). The best part of modeling is admiring the finest outputs built by talented modelers, and seeing the collection getting bigger and bigger...

Cheers!
MM

I made a mistake and didn't find the option to edit it. So here's a repost with correction:

Thanks, andy!

Correction: the 10cm gun from Dragon is not "Morser 18", it's "Kanone 18"
