Tanker, I just want to keep looking at this all the time! Outstanding piece of work, brilliant! Lemme guess, baking sodafor the snow? Even down to the footie-prints. The layout is perfect, and that farm building is perfect. You scratch it?
Definately not going to nitpick here, but you could add a crank and a rope for the well with a bucket resting on the ledge.
Man, I gotta start doing more winter scenes!

thanks everyone for the comments.... kelly, baking soda. the building is verlinden and i realized after finishing that i forgot the bucket to put at the well..... I'm going to eventually scratch a crank as well as add some spent casings, ammo and a couple men inside the building with the PAK40. again, thanks everyone.

not bad tank like the idea a the pak 40 in the building, always seemed cool to me the marder II (m i right?) looks great too i think the interior of the building could use a little wear n ter tho just my opinion otherwise a very nice build

Very well planned. I like the amount of detail as well. One complaint...I would like a better look at the Marder, it looks like you did some impressive weathering, with the chipping and all, but its kind of a fuzzy pic. And thanks for the close-up of the motor bike it's one of my favorite.

That's very well built. I like the sense of action it portrays. Good snow.
