This guy is really on top of his game!!! I'm trying to lure him overthis way as I think he will be a real inspiration.

He also runs hisown site (German).

Take a look at a master at work!

Very impressive work. If I live to be 100 I'll never equal that level of professionalism. It's a good thing I'm happy being an amateur.

That's some great work he's doing. Interesting on how he ran the torison bars at angle, is that how there were in the 1:1 version?

Yes top notch for sure. He redid a Mato Sherman and it was equally impressive.

Ha!!!! If that were true my friend Tamiya, Heng Long, Matto, and just about everyone else would be out of business. You have the magic touch that is for sure.

Welcome,

I have seen your work also, The Opel Blitz comes to mind from awhile ago. Very impressive.



Cheers,
Wade

I agree. I have seen your work on other sites, that Sherman included, and you are a master of the craft. Maybe you can do a build thread here for us. Welcome to the site brother!
