Really nice, Phaisal! That T-34 and the Tiger are gorgeous. The rest are all nicely rendered as well--I like that big KV as well!

MM, I'm curious about the tracks on the Tiger - there are open guide horns on each link as with many of the newer DML individual link sets, but there is something about the way that the track rests on things which makes me think that they may be the DS "rubber band" style. Do you know offhand what Art Instructor used on this build?

Karl - Thanks so much for your kind comments on AI's works! Now he's working on Landkreuzer P1000 Ratte and Russian Terminator, among others.

KnightTemplar5150 - Looking from the appearance of the tracks, I think he used the DS tracks. They are easier to build than individual tracks. Did you know that he built all these 7 pieces in just over three weeks?. With individual tracks, it would have taken a bit longer. Thanks for your interest.

Three weeks? I consider myself lucky if I can get a single model built and primed in that amount of time, let alone finishing seven different kits!

Well, that's normal for most people. But in AI's case, he's developed a specialization of job - model making in a timely manner, his own style.

Hi MM.

Keep them coming :)

I would like to see closeups to the breach of the 88.

And I am a bit concerned about the track sag on the T34 & T1.

Appart from that I enjoy watching AI's work as usual..

Send him my regards :)

Zack

Happy Modeling! Cool

Pretty cool MM, I really like the finishes on the two Soviet tanks.

Zack - Many thanks for your kind comments. Too bad I didn't take close-up images of the 88.

As for those tracks, you think they sagged too much? I don't know where he got the example.

I'll forward your regards to him.
