It's lovely. I like everything about it. Dust, tank-men, tracks and damages. Very good model. Regards. Bart.

Very nice John great weathering and figure painting 5*

 

[Guest]

That's superb, a real stunner, and I find it very depressing that yet another modeller shows outstanding talent ('Specially one from "Wassal")

I didn't realise till I was watching the gogglebox the other day that the Merkava pretty much started out as a Centurion chassis turned backwards..

Well done mate. That's one to be proud of.

I like this a lot, Nice.

 

[Guest]

Stunningly realistic

 

[Guest]

You missed a rivet on the back of the turret !!!

But as the rest off the model is so damn well done i might just let you off that oversight.

There's a lot of nicely done weathering and distressing detail in that build, very effective

all in all well worth 5 stars John.

[Guest]

Oops it's a five star from me:clap:

 

[Guest]

Outstanding finish, you've made some really nice touches

It'd look great on a bit of dusty road

 

[michaelm]

That is a great build John, paint and weathering are top quality, 5*. M

 

[Ian M]

That is outstanding!

Looks very much like its been baked in the sun and playing in the sand. Very Nice.

The tankies are also very well done. As for a dio? Put it on a simple base. A dusty track with a couple of dessert plants. That would look nice and not distract from that excellent build!

I imagine that is a big lump and a worthy diorama would be huge enough to give it housing problems.... However, a knocked out, burnt out enemy tank and a couple of figures, examining the damage..... that could look nice as well.

If you have a house and bank account big enough, a crashed Chopper wreck would be different! lol

Five stars from me as its the most that can (legally) be given....

John that is a superb build....everything about it is top drawer stuff.

A simple dirt road base is all that's needed to make it 110%...at least. But for now here's another 5* for the pile!

Well done,

Ron
