Unfortunately, no you have not seen everything---not as long as this guy still has unbroken fingers... :shock:

The one other thing that tells you it's a FOV Tiger are the road wheels, 21st's Tiger was modeled with late war steel wheel's while FOV's was modeled with early/mid production wheels.

........... maybe somebody should send him a message via eBaY , to let him know what he's up to and that we're on to him. :wink:

........ or better yet , complain to eBaY that you find his auction offensive , and they'll have it removed ! * :lol:

No, let's not do that. While the guy's work is funny, he's not really doing anything wrong. Not enough to warrant messing with his auctions anyway.

He's probably not lying about his work getting published in FSM, considering even 10 year-olds can have pictures of their models published in the reader-submitted picture gallery. And as for his claim to being a Luftwaffe expert...well, at least in his mind, he is. And there's nothing wrong with that.

He hasn't deceived anyone, nor lied about anything in his auctions. What you see is what you get. And if someone wanted a Tiger I that looks like a clown car...well, more power to them.

Besides, If we start messing with other people's business just because we find their skills questionable at best...we don't really want to go that route, right? :P

Although I'm fairly confident with my own models and skills, so it doesn't really matter with me. :D

This guy is a good model builder. He just needs to be more accurate with his customizing. :wink:
