And here's my latest baby: after a long hiatus, i built dragon's old jagdpanther and added bits and pieces from old partially used photo etched sets. the etched stuff is mostly by the now defunct show modelling company. zimmerit was applied using grumbacher acrylic gesso which i highly recommend. and then patterned with a trumpeter scribe tool. The pattern is waay too deep but what the heck.

Nice models, sir! I used to build aircraft and some tank models too, until I realized my skills were quite lacking ;D

These are very nicely done. You may inspire me to get back into building models... darn it.
I love the use of aftermarket fittings and the paint jobs are very nice.
