Sprechen Sie English, backdroft?! I hope! Meine Deutsch ist Scheisse!

This is GORGEOUS! (Hubsche!??) Sehr Gut, Sehr Gut!!!!!

I love the trees, and the obvious time and patience it must have taken to do your groundwork!

Are you using PREISSER figures? I love their line.

I'm a BIG fan of 1:72 scale; I'm excited to see more of your work!

You really do a very good job in 1/72. The ground work is absolutely fantastic for such a small scale! And your pictures have very real angles, and the figures arr fantastic. Great job.

I switched over to 1/35 but looking at your work makes me want to go pick up a 1/72 scale tiger kit, you do awsome ground work as well

Thanks for the link as it is a very impressive diorama.

I am hopefully getting some Preiser figures next moth, so I can see what they are like.

cheers
