Meet Olga,

[monica]

glad that your liking it Jim,real trying to get that battle look about her,

[flyjoe180]

Wow, Olga is looking rather used now, very effective paint work Monica. Coming along nicely indeed.

[monica]

thks Joe,glad your liking her,she is a bit weathered lol,

[flyjoe180]

she is a bit weathered lol

I know how she feels :P

[monica]

I know how she feels :P

Oh lol,


just got to love Russian armor


the best thing they gave the world,unkeep and looks used,

[grumpa]

I do have a fascination with Russian armor myself, Though crew comforts were all but null , mechanical reliability and fighting performance were high on the scale, couple that with copious numbers and you have a formidable opponent indeed.............Jimops: I know, I know, our stuff is more technologically advanced but with all our budget cuts and all their massive building up of late I don't think that's a matter of importance any longer [ATTACH]114478.IPB[/ATTACH]

your so right Jim,but thats what i think as well,


its build for war not to sit in the shed and be all nice and shinny,there on the move for weeks on end with the miner combat as well,

That's definitely a battle weary KV 2! I'll wait until the completed thread to add more except ....


I'm hoping that base isn't finished Moni? I just think the grass is too neat & even - looks like she's strayed onto Centre Court at Wimbledon!

[monica]

thks Patrick,do real appreciate these comments


oh the suspense will kill me lol,


no not the base,just a mat for it to sit on,trying to get a better pic,

[Guest]

My first look Moni. Sorry have missed out.


Great work you certainly are versatile in model making.


That Jerrry Can is superb.


Laurie

[grumpa]

She's sure been through the mill, great paint work, can't wait to see her finished, oh and I too think of all my tanks as my "girls"............Jim

[monica]
