I wouldnt worry about the hand job on the markings, wouldnt have been done by hand any way on the real ones in the field? But it is a nice job you did.

Outstanding job Grognard
The sign of a great model is that one’s eye is not drawn to any one feature, yet one can study it for hours and continually find something new.

I must say Grognards custom 250 was a wonderful project to watch, from the beginning to its completion! Another very talented modeler/customizer.

And once more a subject that the 1:18th manufacturers kind missed. :?

I have collected 1:18th aircraft over the years, but have always liked armor more!

All-Go tried a come back with the P-51 Passion Wagon which I liked and hoped would help them get the 1:18th market moving once more. Time will tell, but I've always said Armor Sells.......King Tiger, the production pics of the Jaddpanther thats new stuff......go with it!

Grognard......what else are ya working on?
