Furious!

I don't suppose you'd consider doing a WIP on one of your paint jobs? You've said before what kind of stuff you use, and I think it'd be a real education, particularly for us noobs, to see how you achieve such excellence time and time again!


That's another way of saying "great build"!

Nice and I agree about the damaged logs. But I do like .

Really well done ( never seen the film but you got the look of tiger and Sherman spot on ( in my opinion ) love the weighty look in the mud on the tiger too as lots of pictures and ref I've done shows how much the tiger did eat up the earth


Really like the weathering too!!

[grumpa]

My only crit was the lack of damage where the '88 struck the Sherman about the logs on the flank, beyond that its a damn fine effort!!
But thats just me being pernickety....

No , you're absolutely correct, hadn't really thought about that much when constructing model only because first intention was just to make "Fury" the tank which was a remake of existing model originally posted as "Christel" because it was the only Easy 8 I had and after movie came out prices for said model went through the roof. Did think about doing the damage though but it was such a pain in the a** to get the logs right I said the hell with it. Good eye though but not good enough to notice that there was also no foliage on tiger either because believe it or not still snow covered and very cold up here in the mountains how did you like Brad the Pitts ? not a very accurate depiction of him either just having some fun but something about whole dio bothers me

Hey think I can have my movie back now?

[grumpa]

I see you managed to pry up some soil Jim, I like this whole scene and I actually like the movie. I think the first thing I'd do coming across this beast is button up the hatches. Love it mate nice work.

Thanks Aaron, actually I couldn't get to any natural soil on property, used crappy potting from shed, I guess that's what bothers me the most about this dio also couldn't pick about for my little foliage doodads. Whole thing turned cartoonish in a way {another thing that bothers me} Actually come to think of it I'm starting to hate the freakin movie too! Sorry folks I guess I got bit by the Hollywood bug myself. ops:

Thanks John, will consider it

You may hate it Jim but I think its great, obviously as you say the distances are a bit close but the armour build and the base are top class. As Robert says the base really gives the impression of very heavy tanks digging into the soft plowed field , I reckon the choice of potting soil was spot on , great build ( but I darent give a medal or yin yang or whatever for fear of opening up the can of worms , mmm ,wonder if there's an icon for that !?) Cheers Tony

Thanx, Don't sweat it Tony, yours and others comments mean so much more to me than any yingy thingy. what really peed me off about the soil was all the little foam bits they put in it for aeration

[aaron]

We really are our own worst critic's but I understand completely Jim, some times our builds just aren't up to our own standards. I've had builds where there's no way I'd post on the forum but felt like I had too because I'd started a thread.

That may be so, but I'll give you one Jim because from where I sit that looks great. The potting mix looks like it's been raining, and the tanks are very nicely done. So ying yangy thingy to you Sir.

Thanks Joe I really appreciate that

That is a great job! I watched that film last week. And your build has captured that scene perfectly. Well done!
