    The Road to Berlin,,

    well call this one all done,


    been a very long project this one,for some reason lost interest or sidetracked in it,


    as one dose,


    but all done,I,m happy how it turned out,


    its a 1.35 SU122,


    and the stories is that with the Russian pushing towards Germany ,all unites are called to


    head towards the Rhineland,and this one has stop to refuel,and take on supply's


    well I do hope you like it,


    any comments most welcome,

    I like the dio! Great build! One advice about snow if you don't mind! The snow on the crew shoulders can't be there unless is showing badly ! Try to use a lot of snow on their feet and try to wipe out the snow from the engine's fan. It supose to be warmer then any other side of the tank and fill up with snow the trucks, the wheels. I believe you will be happy with the final result!;-)

          I like the snow a lot don't know what you used but it's good I think a lot of people don't realise how cold it got in winter of 44 engines froze solid in minutes if not kept running PS no animals it needs your trade mark maybe a rat or something

            ta for the comments,I do understand what your getting at,


            will do on my next show one,add more to tracks,


            as yes it could use some more,show on the tracks as I ,have it with more dirt,mud,showing ,trying to show its ,fresh show,and the tank still hits the earth under it,


            as by the sides and some front and back,


            do like the look of your ones with the more show cover,


            the other thing is there in no rush to go any where,and in stead of refueling and loading supply's,there just standing about in the snow falling,chatting and


            having a smoke,

                Good work Monica, that's a cold-looking scene. Nice detail too, the guy leaning on the barrel looks frozen. Where's the cat? I can't see one...

                  It gives a great sense of the cold.

                              Very nice Monica, great dio. Not sure about the clumps of snow on the crew though, snow doesn't tend to settle like that on humans, I mean it certainly doesn't clump.


                              Let's put it this way if all the crew had no snow on them it wouldn't look weird in my eyes.


                              Quality none the less
