Questions for Collectors Showcase..Do the wheels roll? What are the dimensions of the model ( vehicle only, no front bumper shield or antenna...)? Height, length, width in inches..I swear this is not to start any scale issue. I really want to buy this model if the sizing is reasonable..Michael

Well, with the recent discussion about the Jagdpanther I would also be interested in the size as it could be nearer 1/30th and back to normal and away from the scale of the Tiger I. Hope someone who knows will offer the info

a bit too clean, no weathering at all for a war vehicle, special the Tri-color camo...^&confuse

Truthfully, CS usually does not dirty up their vehicles that much..If sizing works out and I get an Africa Corp one, I would probably do that myself.. Michael

Debrito...

I hear what you are saying. Though, its equally the case with other manufacturers even FL are a bit too clean. Look at the wheels on their AFV's and trucks. They look straight from the factory. I am not a big fan of some of the weathering thats often done on AFV's so, sometimes less is more, if you know what I mean. but, as has been mentioned its an easy job to weather up an AFV if one wants

Is not about mud on the tracks, it is more painting washes layers. I do remember one of your works on a grey tank, it was very neat and clean, a job straight from the fabric. I prefer a little bit more dirt... I did like the way you painted your winter tank, you washed the painting very well giving him a dirt look, used metal as result as many battles experiences. .

The CS vehicle is very good modelled, well made.{bravo}}

Agreed 100% with you, IMO no one really dusts up their vehicles.

Cheers

and half the price of any current alternative. I think I know which will sell more. Choice is a good thing.

Rod..

Cheers for the comments. With you now I suppose when they have to rattle out 300 or so they are restricted on what they can do for the price and the time they have to complete them. I have not seen the CS version in the flesh yet but, it looks well detailed but, I am still not won over by the colourways. seen the FL version in grey and that was a nice set but, for me, not weathered enough

I agree with you, but have decided that 'making em dirty' myself is now half the fun. I used the hesitate to alter a maker's paint job, but now I like to personalize them.
