1958Zelda, pickelhaube,
I am so appreciative your skills and talents. And thanks for all the progress reports throughout the project. You've brought fulfillment to the 9 or 10 year saga of acquiring a 1/18 King Tiger for so many of us. A dream come true. Thank you.

Hopefully, I was a good customer.

I was going to take some photos next week, but 1958Zelda's are so very impressive. :shock:

Sorry about all typos earlier. Crazy, hectic morning.

1958Zelda.
Love the photos, you got some nice focal lengths and depth of field that made some very convincing shots. What are you shooting with?

Great job on the Tiger !!!!! and fantastic ambush camo scheme!

I have to agree with Skypirate's statement, your both very skilled and talented and I might add "Artists".

Matthew, thank you for the 1:18 King Tiger. You gave us what 21st tried to.......and yes, a dream come true!
