hi, Tony that dio is amazing. I had forgotten that you had treated us to the little panzer jäger 1. Your figure painting is excellent, the guy with the blue jumper really breaks up the whole scene.

Now you need to build the Pak36 (r) towed 75mm(formerly 76mm) AT gun. There is a choice between Bronco and ICM.

On the workbench: Dragon 1/350 scale Ticonderoga class USS BunkerHill 1/720 scale Italeri USS Harry S. Truman 1/72 scale Encore Yak-6

Tony,

Cool job on the figures so far! They'll definitely add an enhancement to your model. Nothing like some human interest and scale!

What's the thought behind the blue jacket, though? I'm not aware of any precedent for it. Is it just "dare to be different"?

Maybe you'll inspire Bill to try a figure or two.....Whistling........Big Smile

Crew looks sharp Tony, I can see why they've kept you busy. The blue jacket is a very nice touch...very eye-catching. Yes
