Brilliant Kev ... There is a couple there that the scale of the grass looks spot on despite it's size ...
I think te first one works for me best!
ive shown people your other big set you posted when down the pub you know ... I still say its funny the stuff people get up to that for some reason you could quite place them getting up to... If you know what I mean??

 

[Kev Pugh]

Thanks both, always difficult to create something scale in the real world, but fun all the same, perhaps I'll turn my back garden into a tanks proving ground then Tom can come play..

Brings back memories of Airfix models and reading war comics as a kid

That's a cracking looking tank Kev - loving the photos from the low angle

Excellent set Kev and, as Hamish says, you've managed to get the scale looking very realistic in some of them. So is this a new acquisition in preparation for the 'shoot-out' with Tom?!

Cheers Chris but a little more anorak than Airfix

Pete, thanks, it is difficult playing with scales but worth a go imo. yep it is a new bit of hardware, an addition to the smaller but faster pzkpfw III.

I am at the moment building from scratch a static Tiger I to add to the effect.. but which is which will be the question when it comes to battle
