    Outstanding finish, you've made some really nice touches

    It'd look great on a bit of dusty road

        That is outstanding!

        Looks very much like its been baked in the sun and playing in the sand. Very Nice.

        The tankies are also very well done. As for a dio? Put it on a simple base. A dusty track with a couple of dessert plants. That would look nice and not distract from that excellent build!

        I imagine that is a big lump and a worthy diorama would be huge enough to give it housing problems.... However, a knocked out, burnt out enemy tank and a couple of figures, examining the damage..... that could look nice as well.

        If you have a house and bank account big enough, a crashed Chopper wreck would be different! lol

        Five stars from me as its the most that can (legally) be given....

          John that is a superb build....everything about it is top drawer stuff.

          A simple dirt road base is all that's needed to make it 110%...at least. But for now here's another 5* for the pile!

          Well done,

          Ron

              One way or another, your builds are a reference for me John. The dusty effect is simply perfect.

              You are a very detailed and patience modeller.

              Fantastic model!

                              Not been doing much modelling at mom, so have missed a lot of builds here. So just looking at a few builds this is a tank I would like to build. Excellent work on the Merkava mate your work is perfect.
