Another piece of crap

The guy doesn't do bad work at all, he just has a problem with accuracy.

This is what Google produced. The concept is sound, but it seems he chose the wrong chassis perhaps?

And as far as building tanks and mods...Let PH do it.
PS any word about the poor Japanese in the "KATE".

Looks good even if not historically accurate.

I have yet to see anything this guy has made that is 100% acurate. There is always something wrong with what he builds or paints.
When he does paint and not use squiggly lines the paint is not bad. But his armor leaves a lot to be dessired.
But he has a bid so what do I know ?

While the piece is very nice looking, I have problems with his auction statements.
The "real" vehicle was built on a new body developed for that weapon system.
The "real" vehicle never served on the Eastern Front.
Because of problems with the system, only one vehicle was completed and the Luftwaffe cancelled the entire project. The single completed vehicle saw action in northerm Italy and went nowhere else.
The vehicle was called "8.8cm Flak Pz.Sfl.IVc".
This is as per David Doyle's excellent book "Standard Catalog of German Military Vehicles".
This modeler is a talented guy, far better that alot of the guys on this board, me included, but he leaves a large gray area in his auction listing statements.
TTT

Some more pics and intel.........

Good idea...but not that accurate, the finished model that is.
If it were sold as a what if or a fictional model that would be cool. Oh well........I'd just like to get a few more of 21st's Panzer IV's.

Okay, so what I don't get is, if we can hit up Google and get the correct pics for most of the stuff he's building...
...why can't he?

i swear this guy puts in his own shill bid on every one of his auctions and then hopes someone bites and outbids him.
There is no way somebody bid $350 on that thing already. Even sometimes the Huns beautiful work doesn't get that high a bid, let alone this..
