 Re: PHOTO FEATURE: M1 Panther II
Well worth waiting for Ian Really like all the details - especially around the figure - but for me the base work really makes it. Looks cracking - it all works - Many congratulations Rob

 Re: PHOTO FEATURE: M1 Panther II
Ian, looks great. I really like this one. I am certainly going to be looking back at this when I get "The Fox Comes Calling" rolling again, I love the desert look.

 Re: PHOTO FEATURE: M1 Panther II
Ian- Yessir! You nailed that! The sandy base really captures the look. Strangely- the Pringles can adds to the realism of the scene, without altering my impression of the Pringles brand either positively or negatively. All in all- very convincing and a nice piece of work. Great progress since the shelf queen thread! Steve

 Re: PHOTO FEATURE: M1 Panther II
Congratulations Ian - Extremely well done, especially because of the minimalistic desert scenery. I can almost hear some classic Western movie soundtrack in the background... ....Oh wait, that's Winamp Philipp

 Re: PHOTO FEATURE: M1 Panther II
Ian, You're very good at this! You should tell your boss that you've decided to work less in order to "develop your inner artist". The scenery and ground cover is really first rate as is the tank and all the accessories. You're on a roll now! maybe your next one could be done in a mere 2 years!
