I was only pursing this kit on ebay a day or so ago. A bit more interesting looking than the other MB Jadgpanther and a I love the dynamic diorama. Might have to get me one.

That model is really starting to look very special, nice work.

I was just thinking the same thing about the same kit. Although an ardent wingy thingy builder as a youth I had a definite liking for Matchbox's armour kits.

All the best.

Tracks on one side. Sort of. Squint.

Snapped the other one, too! Yay!

Diorama looks OK, in the plus side of the ledger.

May struggle to finish this one: it's late and I'm tired. 9am deadline (earlier, in fact: I have to be in class at 9).

I could set an alarm... we'll see.

No argument from these coordinates. A fine Blitz build. he base really sets it off nicely.

Excellent build and Blitz. This could be the Blitz that launched a 1000 eBay sales of MB and Revell 1/76, mini-dio sales. Very nicely done!
