Looks good, and I'll have to take a look at the MiniArt figs next opportunity.

Maybe I did this for Rommel vs Monty? ;) Lol! No worries though. It's all good! Thanks for the kind words my friends.

Great to see you finish this SP, and the figures really complete the dio.

Glad to see you finally got her done. I haven't finished a kit since that build almost 3 years ago. I too really love those figgies.

Thanks Mike. I agree 100% that the figures really improve things. These Miniart tanker figure sets rock!

Once again, those figures really set this off. I have that set in my stash for later. Now I know they'll look great. :)

Details are great!

I built this kit for the "That's Amore" Italian GB last year, and came in a little late with it. The kit is the old issue of the M13/40 that I converted into a command vehicle using some Italeri parts, some scratch work, and a lot of stuff from my spares bin. I finished it late last year, but over the past few weeks I have been working on a vignette base and some Miniart crew figures. Well I finally got it all completed last night and thought that I would share it here... here she is all together now in living color...
